10 UNUSUAL NATIONAL FLAGS
The flag first appeared on the battlefields. It marked the place where the commander was located. Then the kings got their flags. And when states began to emerge, they developed their national symbols - coats of arms, anthems, and, of course, flags. Among the flags of the 195 independent countries, there are some very unusual ones.
1. NEPAL
Nepal decided to abandon the standard form of the flag. And this is the only case. The two triangles that make up the flag symbolize the north and south peaks of Mount Everest.
The most unusual flag is a pentagon, as the Nepalese flag has exactly five corners. The top triangle depicts the moon, and the bottom triangle shows the sun. Both royal symbols represent hope. And hope is critical for those conquering Everest.
2.TURKMENISTAN
This is the only country with a carpet on its flag. It depicts the carpet ornaments of five Turkmen tribes and olive branches as a symbol of Turkmen independence. The stars represent the country's five regions, and the crescent moon represents the peaceful sky above them. Natural gas is the backbone of Turkmenistan's economy; I would depict a gas production tower on their flag. But perhaps carpets are more appreciated in the former Soviet republic.
3. BELIEVES.
The detailed drawing in the center of the flag is the Belize coat of arms. It reflects the industries vital to the state's economy: woodworking and shipping. This is the country Turkmenistan should have taken an example from! The whole flag has twelve colors. This is more than on any other flag in the world. Belize is an international offshore zone. I hope you get the hint. What else is missing from this country's flag? Dollars, euros, or maybe bitcoin?
4. MOZAMBIQUE
The flag of Mozambique is the only flag in the world with a modern weapon. And that weapon is a Kalashnikov assault rifle.
According to Article 297 of the Constitution of the Republic of Mozambique, the Star symbolizes the hope for international solidarity with the Mozambican people. At the same time, the book, hoe, and weapon represent education, production, and defense. The Mozambican parliament is now seething with passion: the opposition believes that the Kalashnikov assault rifle on the flag does not decorate a civilized country. I hope they don't use Kalashnikovs or hoes in their disputes.
5. CROATIA
I've seen the flag of Croatia often, so it doesn't seem strange to me. How many countries in the world can boast that you can play chess on their flags? By the way, this brightest element of the flag makes the Croats one of the most recognizable sports nations in the world - their checkered uniform cannot be confused with anything else. There is a chessboard on the Croatian flag. A beautiful legend says that the Croatian king Svetoslav Suronja played a chess game with the Venetian Doge Peter the Second in the old 10th century. Along with the game, he won the right to own the cities of Dalmatia. For joy, King Svetoslav depicted a chessboard in his coat of arms.
6. PORTUGAL
The flag of Portugal, which consists of unequal red and green stripes, shows an armillary sphere. This astronomical instrument was used to determine the equatorial or ecliptic coordinates of the celestial luminaries. And it also symbolizes Portugal's great fortunes in great geographic discoveries. The Portuguese flag is unique; no other country has placed a scientific instrument on its flag. Although in the past, the flag of the GDR had a circlet on it.
7. BRAZIL
Brazil is the fifth largest country globally in terms of territory and was formerly a colony of Portugal. Not surprisingly, the flag of this country also has astronomical symbols. If to believe the flag's description, the stars are located precisely as "at 8:30 in the morning (12 o'clock in the starry time) on November 15, 1889 - the day of Brazil's proclamation as the republic". This is incredibly convenient because it is impossible to verify now! According to the number of states and territories, all the stars of the southern sky did not fit on the flag, and then twenty-seven of them were selected.
8. CAMBODIA
The flag of Cambodia is the most common, rectangular. But it has its uniqueness. This is the only flag, which depicts a religious structure - the temple of Angkor Wat. Giant Angkor Wat five-tower built in the XII century - the world champion among religious buildings in size: it covers an area of two square kilometers! The flag's blue color symbolizes the monarchic power, red - the people, white - religion.
9. CYPRUS
Except for the Republic of Kosovo, which is not recognized by all countries, the only flag with the country's outlines is the flag of Cyprus. It may appear that the silhouette of the island on the white flag is colored yellow or gold. But the description of the flag states that the color is copper. It points to the copper mines that existed in Cyprus as early as the third millennium B.C. And the very Latin name copper cuprum came from the name of the island of Cyprus. The two olive branches that are crossed on the flag represent the island's two population groups: the Greek Cypriots and the Turkish Cypriots.
10. NORWAY
The Norwegian flag is hardly unusual: a red cloth with a blue Scandinavian cross in a white border. But it is interesting because a child drew it. In 1814, Norway moved from the Danish king's power under the power of the King of Sweden. Gradually the question of the flag came up. And then little Gerhard, Frederik Melzer, a parliamentarian from Bergen, playing, painted a white cross on the Danish flag in blue. The pope liked the drawing, and he thought that the blue cross could be interpreted as a symbol of Sweden. The red, blue, and white combination, like on the French tricolor, symbolized freedom.
When I started this list, I thought the most unusual flags would be in Africa or Asia. But how surprised I was when it turned out that Europe was in the lead, with four unique flags: Croatia, Portugal, Cyprus, Norway. And in general, vexillology - the science that deals with the study of flags, banners, standards, pennants-gives us many fascinating facts!
