Disclosure: I built this. It powers quizbandiere.it, my free flag quiz.<\/p>\n
Country datasets are everywhere; flag colors<\/em> usually aren’t, and when they are they’re hand-written heraldic descriptions. I extract them from the rendered SVG: rasterize at 64\u00d748, classify pixels by hue, merge antialiasing shades, drop anything under 2.5% of the area, then order the result along whichever axis separates the color centroids most. So a vertical tricolor comes out left-to-right and a horizontal one top-to-bottom \u2014 Italy is I built it to generate believable wrong answers in a quiz. It works well as a similarity key for “which flags get confused with which”.<\/p>\n 250 entries (195 independent states, 55 territories): ISO 3166-1 alpha-2\/3, official name, capital, region, area, borders, currencies, languages, TLD, calling code, emoji, colors, SVG URL.<\/p>\n Served with Limitations<\/strong><\/p>\n License:<\/strong> ODbL 1.0 \u2014 not a choice, mledoze\/countries is ODbL and share-alike.
