Two comments regarding flags: it looks a bit awkward, that the letters are staggered instead of deformed according to the flag curving. A whole other idea, of how countries are identified without colors are the oval car sticker symbols. On cars they are getting less common, but they are still commonly used in printed international instruction manuals and warranty notes and sometimes even on product packaging.

The deformation would be of a bulge/pinch variety and not just following the curve. Either way, it's going to be a lot less legible. > oval car sticker symbols Yeah, that would have been ideal. They wouldn't be flags anymore, but I think it's a better compromise. And like you observed, instantly useful.
