Why This Control Is Terrible
Instead of a simple dropdown, users must draw their country's flag on a canvas for identification. The system uses basic color analysis to guess which flag was drawn, but recognition is deliberately imprecise and frustrating. Complex flags like Wales (with a dragon), Bhutan, or Nepal's unique shape are nearly impossible to draw accurately. Even simple flags can be misidentified due to similar color schemes. Good luck with your artistic skills!
