Fascinating Fact:

India’s flag has three horizontal bands, saffron, white, and green, with a blue Ashoka Chakra in the centre. The wheel has 24 spokes.

This Specialist Flags of the World quiz focuses on a second set of Asian flags. Success comes from comparing layout, colour order, and symbol position very carefully.

  • Canton: A section in the top corner of a flag, usually nearest the flagpole.
  • Proportion: The shape ratio of a flag, such as how tall it is compared with its width.
  • Motif: A design feature or symbol used as part of the flag pattern.
How do I tell similar Asian flags apart in a quiz?

To tell similar Asian flags apart in a quiz, check the exact colour order, stripe direction, symbol size, and where the symbol sits on the flag.

What does the word canton mean on a flag?

In flag vocabulary, a canton is the upper corner area nearest the flagpole, and some countries place a symbol or pattern there.

Do all national flags have the same proportions?

No, national flags do not all have the same proportions. Countries use different height-to-width ratios, which can help identify a flag correctly.

Since then Israel has had more than a dozen wars and conflicts with its Arab neighbours despite numerous attempts by all parties to negotiate peace. Let us hope that an agreement which suits all sides can be found in the near future

The symbols of the sun (which represents resolve) and the moon (which is for calmness) were both marked by faces until 1962, when the flag was modernised
