As for the bonus Q, is it on Uranus?

Rectum is in the Netherlands.
As to the city. You I think said 600+ km from Paris and looking at the circular centre it is certainly old. I would guess it is in Italy, but it isn't Rome, so how about Turin?
:stareup: Right on the Rectum! On the city you have to travel a wee bit further....east.
East from Turin would be Milan or Venice, but it isn't Venice because it isn't coastal, so I would guess at Milan?
Correctum! ;)
What is the only flag of a sovereign nation that has a seagull on it?
Clue - the flag looks like this

One of the Pacific islands? I don't have a clue which one though.
Your are in the right area.Quote:

One of my favourite flags. Colour and a nice picture.
Correct Steve. It is Kiribati. Based on LAND area it is one of the smallest countries in the world (800 square km), but if you consider the spread of ocean between the islands is spread over 3500 kmQuote:

Also in the Pacific?
Working on it. I know Burundi has red Stars of David on it, but this certainly isn't Burundi's flag...
I know it is not a national flag
The diagonal stripe tends to suggest West Africa, but that is just a complete guess.

Crimea? :p
Is it the occupied/annexed Jordan West Bank?
Nope.
I am away for the next 4 or 5 hours so when I come back this evening I will see if anyone has it and if not give another clue.
Right then. In order to keep the game moving a more in depth clue.
This place (which the flag belongs to) was until 2010 part of an autonomous Country that is not is Europe. However this place is now a municipality of a Country that is in Europe.
:)
No clue. The only area I can think of is that enclave in the northern tip of Morocco (across from Gibralter) that belongs to Spain. I can never remember its name :mark: .
Good Q though :)
Nope. To be honest, I am great with flags but when I came across this one I was unfamiliar. I will give another clue soon, maybe try and think about regions of the world where lands are part of European Countries.
Think about a region that has British/French and Dutch territories still today. As well as indepent nations.
From the clue I would suggest an Island state in the West Indies
From the clue I would suggest an Island state in the West Indies, Possibly one of the Islands in the Saint Eustatius group, I know there are three of these with St Eustatius being the largest, can't remember the names of the other two at present.
British/French Guiana , Surinam.......:confused:Quote:

I think one starts with a 'B", but I think I am thinking of Barbuda which is a completely seperate thing, and one is Serba, sarba, saba or something similarQuote:

I think you are right, I have an inkling the island flag of Bonaire is the one. The flag for the Netherlands Antilles is basically a red and white cross on white.Quote:

Haven't been back since though I've thought about it plenty of times.Quote:

Bonaire's flag it is so take it away Starter.
Unlucky Anfield you done all the working and were about to get there I think.
