This document presents a logic puzzle involving correctly identifying countries based on the length of their names and the colors of their flags. It provides clues about the countries that can be identified from unique color combinations or by eliminating other options based on length of name and color patterns. The clues are used to systematically identify each of the 16 countries in the puzzle.

1. Target Flags LOGIC PUZZLE 2

Each row contains one 5-, one 6-, one 7-, one 8-, one 9- & one 10-letter country.
Each column contains 3 countries of different length. The triangles at the top of
the column indicate the total number of letters of the countries in that column.
The greater-than & less-than arrows relate to number of letters in the country
name.
Targets show the colours of each country's flag. (Colours do not relate to the
proportion of each colour in any given flag.)
Name each country.

2. Firstly, any countries with unique colour combinations in
their flags can be inserted. These are: B (LESOTHO), G
(ARMENIA), J (ZAMBIA), L (INDIA) & O (MAURITANIA).

3. If Column 2 totals 26, country H must have 9 letters. The only 9-letter country
with this colour combination on its flag is LITHUANIA.
Country P has more letters than J (ZAMBIA). This eliminates NIGER and COTE
D’IVOIRE has too many letters. [Even if IVORY COAST were allowable, O has 10
letters, so there cannot be another 10-letter country in the 3rd row.] P can
therefore only be IRELAND.
The column 3 total being 18, C must have 5 letters. This means that it can only be
YEMEN.

4. Country F cannot be MOROCCO, as LESOTHO already has the 7-letter slot in Row 1.
The only other country with a green & red flag is BANGLADESH, so this must be F.
Row 1 now contains 5, 7 & 10 letter countries. E cannot, therefore, be PALAU,
UKRAINE or KAZAKHSTAN, so this leaves SWEDEN as the only option.
Column 5 has a total of 20 letters, so R must have 9 letters. The only 9-letter
country with this colour combination on its flag is PALESTINE.

5. K and M must have either 8 or 10 letters in their names. M has fewer letters
than F (BANGLADESH), so K must have 10 and M must have 8 letters. The only
10 letter country with K’s combination of flag colours is MADAGASCAR and the
only 8-letter country with M’s flag colours is ZIMBABWE.
Only ESTONIA and BOTSWANA have Q’s exact combination of colours in their
flag. IRELAND has already taken the 7-letter position in Row 3, so Q can only be
BOTSWANA.

6. If Column 4 has a total of 27 letters, D must have 9 letters. The
only country with a red & yellow flag and 9 letters in its name is
MACEDONIA, so this must be D.
This leaves only an 8 letter option in Row 1. This means that A
must have 8 letters and a blue & white flag. The only country to
which this applies is HONDURAS.

7. If the total number of letters in Column 1 is 21, N must have 6
letters. The only 6-letter country with this colour combination on
its flag is RWANDA.
If Column 6 totals 23 and there is only one option left in the 3rd
row anyway, S must have 5 letters. The only 5-letter country with
a red, green & yellow flag is BENIN, so this must be S.
