SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIES' FLAGS
Flag - The Oldest Communication Tool? Take a piece of cloth, make a unique symbol and you have created a community, organization or a nation! What an amazingly simple and powerful tool! Certainly, one of the oldest communication tool in the history of mankind.
Flags are believed to have been invented in India and China and then gradually spread elsewhere. Surprisingly, nations have not been 'creative' enough with the design of their flags. For example, the flags of Nordic countries (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland) are based on the 'cross design' of Denmark.
