Ottawa reminds me of the old NTSC TV test pattern.

I think the Nicaraguan flags actually look kinda nice.

I'll give the award for worst tricolor to Gelderland in the Netherlands.

This one actually isn't that bad imo. It following the rule of tincture—separating "metals" (yellow & white) from "colors" (red, green, blue, purple, & black)—definitely helps

Toss up between 2 and 3. That red stripe just seems a bit too bold.
