You could check out the Image Viewer custom visual. The description mentions using a slicer to determine which image is displayed. However, it's based on your image having a url, so you might have to arrange that for your data. There are several places online that you could probably use to pull your flag images, such as flags.NationMaster.com.

@KarthikMohan if you're able to find url for all countries flags images online then you can use Image Viewer custom visual.

What you need to do is in your dataset against each country specify url to that countries flag image online. Make sure data category for the column is Image URL. Then simply use Image Viewer custom visual with the url field from dataset. When selection is made on slicer Image Viewer will be filtered with that country's flag image.
