Stereotype jokes have got to be probably the least creative and tired kind of humor there is, a constant re-hashing of the same old cliches over and again from now until eternity. Italians eat lots of pasta? Check. Germans lack humor? Gotcha. Brazilians and football? Mhm. Oh, the Irish love potatoes do they? I never knew.
Yet still, they remain popular, we as humans apparently love to have our beliefs and categorizations confirmed and they make us happy. The internet has been experimenting with another angle on the theme lately, with people exploring the 'true meaning' behind national flags, and they do allow an element of creativity into proceedings! Scroll down to check them out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

This is so true. The first pizza, made for queen Margharita, was made with topings resembling the Italian flag. General Knowledge out.
It’s sad how there all trapped behind a wall and even if they wanted out there not allowed cause they would be killed
This is INCREDIBLY offensive to the memory of the thousands of Northern Italians who fought and lost their lives fighting for the resistance. In my family we lost four brave men who were helping these Italian Partigiani who were hiding and fighting against the Nazis in the Dolomites during WWII. It saddens me greatly that the Northern Italians' struggles during WWII have not been included in the history books here in the west.
UK: *conquers Ireland, forces Irish off their land, profits from near slave labor, starves millions to death* Uk: lol, you irish are soooooo dependent.
Yeah, so, since argentinas flag isnt here, ill do it myself. Inflation and self-hatred... any color.
the gimmick with the missing color got old very quickly or perhaps I'm just pissed there's no Dutch flag (the pink stands for ability to cycle while high)
I agree with you. Having almost everyone have a missing color seemed boring and trite after the first couple.

Alia, you probably have a kind and generous heart and you're probably not cynical. We need more people like you. :)
