People i would like you to define your national flag and upload its pics...i am an Indian and starting with our Tricolor The Indian flag is a horizontal tricolour in equal proportion of deep saffron on the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom. The ratio of the width to the length of the flag is two is to three. In the centre of the white band, there is a wheel in navy blue to indicate the Dharma Chakra, the wheel of law in the Sarnath Lion Capital. This center symbol or the 'CHAKRA', is a Buddhist symbol dating back to 200th century BC.

Dear the correct defination of INDIAN Flag is that its divided in three colours first at the top its saffron which resembles the saints of HINDUISM, the second colour white resembling peace and the third colour green resembling islam. And the ashoka chakra at the centre is of Great king Ashoka who won whole India many yeras before Thats the way it is.........! Any how Happy INDEPENDENCE DAY my friend

Malaysian Flag - Malaysia's Flag known as "Jalur Gemilang" (Stripes of Glory)
Our Malaysian flag, or rather known as "Jalur Gemilang" (Stripes of Glory) is comprised of 14 red and white stripes with a blue canton bearing a 14 pointed star and a crescent. The star which is known as the Federal Star represents all of Malaysia's 13 states and also the federal government. The crescent symbolizes Islam as our official religion. Yellow is the royal color of our Malay rulers and blue represents unity of Malaysian citizens. I attached a picture for you..

I am from America, so it explains itself. Red, White, and Blue. The Red for the blood that was shed fighting for the country, the white for freedom, and the blue from the British flag.

LOL, well you got all the words right, but together they make no sense what so ever :-D 'tak for lån nemlig svarer' 'tak for lån' can't really be translated into english, but it means something like 'thanks for borrowing it to me' and then nemlig = exactly and svarer= answers. So what you just posted means: Thanks for borrowing it to me exactly answers :-D

The Philippine Flag - Flag description: two equal horizontal bands of blue (top) and red with a white equilateral triangle based on the hoist side; in the center of the triangle is a yellow sun with eight primary rays (each containing three individual rays) and in each corner of the triangle is a small yellow five-pointed star
Our Philippine flag has two equal horizontal bands of blue (top) and red with a white equilateral triangle based on the hoist side; in the center of the triangle is a yellow sun with eight primary rays (each containing three individual rays) and in each corner of the triangle is a small yellow five-pointed star. The white triangle stands for equality and fraternity; the blue field for peace, truth and justice; and red field for patriotism and valor. The eight rays of the sun stand for the first eight provinces that the colonizers have put under martial law. The three stars symbolize Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao(the three major islands of our country).

Australian Flag - The Australian Flag is on a blue background. It consists onf the Union Cross, to represent our British background, & the Southern Cross, which are stars in the southern hemisphere.
The flag of Australia was chosen in 1901 from entries in a worldwide design competition held following Federation. The five white stars of the fly of the flag represent the Southern Cross. The Southern Cross is the brightest constellation visible in the Southern Hemisphere and has been used to represent Australia. The Union Flag (top left corner) reflects Australia's history as a collection of British colonies, although a more historic view sees its inclusion in the design as demonstrating loyalty to the British Empire. I will add a photo of it.

The navy blue wheel in the center of the white band has 24 spokes & its diameter approximates the width of the white band. The three colors & the navy blue wheel signify some meaning... SAFFRON signifies courage & sacrifice WHITE signifies truth & peace GREEN signifies faith & fertility NAVY BLUE WHEEL symbolizes India's ancient culture, dynamism & peaceful change vani^_^
