Monaco vs Poland
These two are close enough that people routinely draw one when they mean the other. Take the challenge first — the flags are further down the page.
The challenge
Practice
Draw the flag from memory.
What actually differs
- Both flags use the same colours — red and white — so the difference is in the shades and the shape.
- Monaco flies at 4:5 and Poland at 5:8, so side by side one looks longer than the other.
- Even the shared colours are mixed differently: red (#CE1126 against #DC143C).
How to keep them straight
Monaco: Monaco is the stubby one.
Poland: White above red — the eagle is white, so white goes up.
The drawing scorer is built for exactly this: if you swap the colours of Monaco it will tell you which two you flipped, rather than just handing you a low number.
