National Flag: A Symbol of Pride, A Stamp of Identity
by
Jon Gropper
The flag as a symbol has that powerful allure to send the heart beat racing or subject one to a range of emotions. While nothing can beat the power and potency of the emotions that a national flag unleashes, any flag - be it of your favorite NFL team, or a symbol of a time honored tradition or festival such as Halloween-has that inexplicable ability to create a flutter and get the adrenalin pumping.

The Norwegian flag is one of the many beautiful flags of Europe displayed from commercial and residential flag poles throughout the European territory. This flag is colored red, or better said, the field is colored red. Also, a blue colored cross is displayed on top of the field, of which the vertical portion is shifted towards the hoist side of the national flag.

by
Pollux Parker
For everyone who knows the song "Star Spangled Banner", which is the national anthem of the United States of America, the star is not unique to the US flag. There are about 50 other countries that use the star as a symbol in their national flags, as it is the most widely used flag symbol. However, only one country has ever used a bible as a symbolism in its national flag, and that country is the Dominican Republic.
