Namaste!!!

Warm wishes, Hi I am from the Himalayan Country of Nepal and today I am going to be telling you about my national flag.

Nepal is the only country in the world with the national flag that is not rectangle in shape. In layman's term the flag or Jhanda in nepalese term is the shaped of double triangle with red crimson color and the border blue. The symbol of moon and the sun are on the top and the bottom triangles.

Wikipedia describes it as:

The national flag of Nepal (Nepali: नेपालको झण्डा) is the world's only non-quadrilateral national flag. The flag is a simplified combination of two single pennons, the vexillological word for a pennant. Its crimson red is the colour of the rhododendron, the country's national flower. The blue border is the colour of peace. Until 1962, the flag's emblems, the sun and the crescent moon, had human faces. They were removed to modernize the flag.

The flag was adopted, with the formation of a new constitutional government, on December 16, 1962. The individual pennants had been used for the preceding two centuries and the double pennant since the 19th century. The flag borrows the basic design from the original design, which has been in use for more than 2,000 years.

One thing I didn't knew about my National Flag was that It was a mathematical flag. There is a mathematical rule in the constitution about how to make our National Flag. Its so amazing. Check out this video.

Great post. I didn't know our National Flag has mathematical correlation. I should try that myself sometimes. Find the mathematical geometrical steps and post it too.
