Why do countries pick the colors and designs they do to represent themselves on their flags? What do the symbols on flags and coats-of-arms mean?

Organized by continent and indexed by country name, this edition details the origin, adoption date, and symbols of each flag in a concise, appealing style. Accurate illustrations tell as much about the flags as the information-rich text.

Includes a brief history of flags, parts of the flag, and heraldic terms. Also includes flag colors and their symbolic uses, types of flags, a section on international flags (such as the United Nations and European Union) as well as signaling flags.
