About Flags:
Flags have been used all over the world for thousands of years to identify peoples, places, cultures, and beliefs...
Let me tell you about the History of my country National Flag. The Indonesian flag is known as "Sang Saka Merah Putih" meaning "Lofty Bicolor of Red and White". It dates back to that of the Javanese Majapahit Empire, which dominated Indonesia from the thirteenth to the sixteenth century; It was revived again during the 1920s, when Indonesian nationalist agitated againts Dutch rule. (For many years, the Dutch had controlled Indonesia through the Dutch East India Company). The current flag was adopted in 1945, when the country declared its dependence. Red and white are sacred colors in Indonesia: Red represents the physical world, and white the spiritual. Red also stands for bravery and freedom, while white also means purity and justice. Another interpretation is that the red stands for palm sugar and the white for rice, both staples of Indonesian cuisine.
