The Swiss have 3, well think about India, 22 officially recognised languages,
all well-represented in Unicode. :)

As for the flag bit, IMHO the better way to go about it is to use the flag of
the country the language is representing e.g. pt-PT should use Portugal's flag,
whereas pt-BR should use Brazil's flag. That way all 3 languages of Switzerland
should be tagged against the Swiss flag.
