Japan North Korea Bangladesh Armenia Egypt Jordan Tunisia Comoros (but it's not on the map, I just know the flag) Poland South Korea

These are my guesses. This is a game, I'm only 85% sure

Seeing so many Asian countries in the list, my guess would be that white/red flag is probably Indonesia. Can't believe it is not.

Indonesian is red at the top while Polish is red at the bottom, so the flag is Polish for sure!

It is indeed Poland flag. I just always found it hard to remember. Also, I am surprised. I would guess Indonesians are more closed in for racial diversity compared to Poland. Wonder how much diversity does Indonesia actually have.

Loads. Indonesia comprises thousands of islands spread out over 5000km, which will have given rise to very different cultures + limited genetic exchange. Indonesia also only became unified for the first time as a Dutch colony in the 20th century, so whatever cultural and genetic blending is going on now, it only started happening relatively recent.

Poland in comparison is much smaller, the only natural barriers are rivers, they've been a nation for a millennium, and they had population expulsions/exchanges after ww2.
