Does that flag come only from EU countries, or can it come from all European countries?

Hi subway14,
It should be all of Europe. It usually results, as holland25 mentioned from a company that has end users all over Europe.

Yeah, what I meant is they are all from big European companies. Renault and Peugeot were just examples.

Re: Unknown - European Union
Hi Uto, you are right,
Germany is a country and EU is an union,
like California or Texas is a country and USA United States are an union.
USSR was the Union of socialistic countries. I think there are some more unions of different states.
So i told some years ago:
The EU Flag as an Union and under it the flags of the countries.

Re: Unknown - European Union
There are many companies and organizations in Europe that have domains ending in .eu. Maybe the EU flag is related with this.

I get them also when I was in UEA and look on the internet in some places, LOL.
Like in a Starbucks in the capital Umm Al Quwain in the "Umm Al Quwain" region.
So even outside Europe they can add EU flags on your counter,

Re: Unknown - European Union
It usually comes from big companies when some of their services are located in a low cost country, often in Eastern Europe, to hide the real location of their support center.
