[edit] Flags
Primarily for Olympics usage—keeping track of which flag each country was using at the appropriate times. Could also be used for state leaders lists. Anyone who knows more about flags than me, please comment if something is inaccurate here or if there's a better version of a flag than the one I'm using.
