Here's another picture where one can see the following: on the bottom shelf, starting from left to right starting with the flag of Nicaragua and ending with the flag of Jamaica, one can observe that the last three flags are of international organizations. The first one is the flag of the Conference of Central American Armed Forces,  the next one is the the flag of the Inter-American Defense Board and the last one is the CEA-CAA flag.
