The mystery flag

Question

Part two - The mystery flag - twisted

Based on these flags:

(Count the sun in the Argentina flag as yellow)

Which country does this flag belong to?

Please explain why

_{EDIT: I added a black background to clarify what is flag and what is background. Don't count the black as a colour when solving.}

Is it relevant that the flag of Pakistan has a field of white on the left side? (you can't actually tell it's there the way the first image is put together) — p.s.w.g, May 04 '16 at 16:30
The Argentinian flag has four colours, white, sky blue, and gold and brown in the sun. — Pete Kirkham, May 04 '16 at 16:46

Answer :

AFG HANISTAN

Reasoning

The country names are split in two parts: the first part having the same number of letters as colors in the flag.
So:

A - White
G - Yellow
R - Blue
F - Red
P - Green.

The shown flag is White - Red - Yellow so AFG. Only country that starts with those letters is Afghanistan.

@SendersReagent - the point is that this would be the flag if you followed the rules about country names and colours – Tony Suffolk 66 May 09 '16 at 11:03

@TonySuffolk66 I know, there is zero joking allowed on Planet Stack Exchange. I apologize. – SendersReagent May 09 '16 at 11:18
