Description
Flags are a means of cultural and national identity and communication, representing countries, groups and associations all over the world. This book looks at flags through the ages, beginning with their origin and development and moving on to flags in current use, including those of international organizations. Each flag is beautifully illustrated in full colour, and there is information about the political status, geographic position, area and population of the country it represents.
