Summary "By exploring the patterns, colors and crests of flags, we can learn all about the histories and aspirations of the countries they represent. Did you know that the flag of Nepal is the only one with more than four sides? Or that the flag of Mozambique features a book, a hoe and an AK47? Discover all this and more... Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of vexillology!"--Page [4] of cover.
