Most of the countries in the world today were established in the
early to mid 20th century. In the wake of colonialism and two world
wars, borders were drawn up, most of which remain more or less the
same today. Each country chose a symbol with which to represent
themselves; their flags. National flags can tell us a lot about the
histories and identities of the countries they represent. Do you
know why the Union Jack is asymmetrical? Or why the Swiss flag is
square? Can you tell the difference between the flag of Luxembourg
and the flag of the Netherlands? This gorgeous, accessible atlas of
flags around the world is packed with fascinating flag facts
clearly arranged by Robin Jacobs (Earth-Shattering Events) and
engagingly presented by Ben Javens (Alex and Alex). A timely
addition to the reference shelf of any politically curious
6–11-year-old.
