England, Sweden and Japan have two of these. America, Italy and Germany have three of these. What are they?

I hope it's not something completely esoteric, like "branches of government"

There appears to be two flags used for England (GB)... One is white with a red cross (St George flag of England) the other is the one you're thinking of (the Union flag I believe)... So colors on their flags could well be the correct answer because it fits all the rest perfectly.

Well done, DeMark! The answer is indeed the number of the colours on their flags. Whilst England is part of Great Britain, and thus dwells under the Union Jack, its official flag is the flag of St George.
