Flags have long been used as a representation of places and people. They are important national and regional symbols and are often hoisted on public buildings, government offices, and sometimes private homes. One of the most outstanding features of a flag is its color combination.

Although gold and black are some of the most common colors on flags, very few flags are only black and gold. In fact, no country flag is exclusively gold and black. Here are a few other gold and black flags that are not related to any country:
