Which two countries have a square flag?

Hint: This is one of the flags 🇻🇦

Only two countries in the world have square flags: Switzerland 🇨🇭 and Vatican City 🇻🇦

The flag of Switzerland is a red square with a bold white cross at its center, symbolizing neutrality, peace, and humanitarian values.
Vatican City's flag, also square, is divided vertically into two halves—yellow on the hoist side and white on the fly side. The white portion displays the crossed keys of Saint Peter, representing the papacy's spiritual authority, and a papal tiara, symbolizing sovereignty.
