Thanks for your patient explanation. I know how it works after reading it.

I get countries' names

No you don't. You get an expression that has a list of country names applied to the argument "Flag". Such an expression has no rewrite rule, so it remains unevaluated.

You could try this alternate:

EntityClass["Country", "Europe"]["Flag"]

Hello,

  1. Why should I use EntityClass here?

  2. why

    EntityValue[Entity["Country", "France"], "Flag"]

equals to

Entity["Country", "France"]["Flag"]

but

Entity["GeographicRegion", "Europe"]["Countries"]["Flag"]

doesn't equal to 

EntityValue[Entity["GeographicRegion", "Europe"]["Countries"], "Flag"]
