What actually differs
- Both flags use the same colours — white and red — so the difference is in the shades and the shape.
- Poland is two equal horizontal bands; Singapore is two horizontal bands with a central emblem.
- Poland flies at 5:8 and Singapore at 2:3, so side by side one looks longer than the other.
- Even the shared colours are mixed differently: red (#DC143C against #EF3340).
How to keep them straight
Poland: White above red — the eagle is white, so white goes up.
Singapore: Red on top with a moon and five stars in the corner, white underneath.
The drawing scorer is built for exactly this: if you swap the colours of Poland it will tell you which two you flipped, rather than just handing you a low number.
