I'm INDIAN. Our National Flag is Known as Tricolour or "Tringa". It was designed by Pingali Venkayya. It was 26 January, 1950 when it was officially declared as the National flag of Republic of India. It's made of three colours; Saffron on the top, White in the middle and green in the bottom. In the middle thers is a Blue wheel which is known as 'Ashoka Chakra'. The saffron colour denotes Dedication, White denotes Truth and Green Colour denotes the Prosperity. The Ashoka Chakra denotes Work towards peaceful Change. How much you know about your National Flag???

I live in America. The blue part in the left hand corner with white stars numbers the states. The red and white stripes numbers the original states.

The original version of the American flag was created by a lady named Betsy Ross. As America included more states, the American flag changed in appearance to reflect that.

I am a Filipino. First of all our Flag was raised during the day when our country were liberated from the Spanish government, 107 years back. It was designed with original form to symbolize our heritage. The colors of it are blue,r red, white, and yellow. It is composed of a sun with 8 rays and three stars.
