Scotland
Macedonia
Rome
Greece
Alexander the Great was the King of Macedonia during the 4th century BC. He went on to conquer the largest empire the world had seen at that time, stretching as far east as India. After Alexander's death his empire crumbled and since then Macedonia has been governed by Romans, Bulgarians, Normans, Serbians and Ottomans. Following the defeat of the Ottomans in World War One, Macedonia was made a part of the new country, Yugoslavia. It regained its independence in 1991
4 .
Which country is represented by this flag?

Kosovo
Serbia

He can perhaps be forgiven for that, as the Romanian flag was adopted in 1848 - the flag of Chad coming some 111 years later
