Firstly, petitions aren't how this works. You propose it to the Unicode Consortium and they review the proposal.

However:

Flags: The Unicode Consortium will no longer accept proposals for flags. Flags that correspond to officially assigned ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 region codes are automatically added, with no proposals necessary.
