Why has some countries the EU-flag? I don't know which country then...

I know what EU is, and I know it's many nations in it, but why has some unknown countries the EU-flag instead of their country-flag on Flag Counter? I want to know what countries visitors are from, not the unions their country are member of.

Sorry about my English, but I guess you know what I mean if you use your logic intelligence.

When I check the stats, it looks like this; </a></i>Unknown ... 0.3%

Thanks for answears!

I have 3 of those EU flags, the theory is that the flags are actually from Belgium. As Brussels is the headquarters of the EU, there is a chance that the EU flag is a visit from Brussels. Can anybody help further? No need to apologise about your English, there is nothing wrong with it.

Some IP addresses are given to EU instead of individual countries. So visit from those addresses are flagged as coming from "EU".
Most of those servers are in fact in Brussels but tha is not mandatory.
Also, any visit from Brussels not coming from EU servers will show the Belgian flag as usual.
