Hi,

Flags represent territories, not languages.

Catalan ISO 639 language code is "ca", right, as pointed on #600, but Catalonia territory has ISO 3166-2:ES subdivision code "es-ct", as pointed in #600 to by @markusand. So, proper code for flag from Catalonia is "es-ct".

Galician ISO language code is "gl", but Galician territory ISO code is "es-ga", and this code is used for flag. Good.

So, I request to just revert #626. Following ISO 3166-2:GB standard, just like United Kingdom subdivision flags from England, Scotland, Wales, and North Ireland.

Rename es-ca to es-ct, please

Thanks
