The challenge
Practice
Draw the flag from memory.
What actually differs
- Haiti adds white, which Liechtenstein does not have.

How to keep them straight
Haiti: Lock in the order — blue, red then white — from the top down. Say it out loud once and you will still have it tomorrow.
Liechtenstein: Lock in the order — blue then red — from the top down. Say it out loud once and you will still have it tomorrow.
The drawing scorer is built for exactly this: if you swap the colours of Haiti it will tell you which two you flipped, rather than just handing you a low number.
