The challenge
Practice
Draw the flag from memory.
What actually differs
- Both flags use the same colours — red, blue and white — so the difference is in the shades and the shape.
- Slovenia carries shield and stars; Serbia has nothing in the middle.
- Serbia flies at 2:3 and Slovenia at 1:2, so side by side one looks longer than the other.
- Even the shared colours are mixed differently: red (#C6363C against #ED1C24) and blue (#0C4076 against #005DA4).
How to keep them straight
Serbia: Lock in the order — red, blue then white — from the top down. Say it out loud once and you will still have it tomorrow.
Slovenia: Lock in the order — white, 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 Serbia it will tell you which two you flipped, rather than just handing you a low number.
