Malaysia Flag



http://www.mapsofworld.com/flags/
The national flag of Malaysia has fourteen red and white alternate bands of same width. In the hoisting part of the flag there is a blue rectangle. In the middle portion of the rectangle there is a yellow crescent and a yellow star with fourteen points. The fourteen bands represent the federal government and a group of thirteen states and the yellow star symbolizes their unity. The yellow crescent symbolizes Islam religion of Malaysia. The yellow color also is the royal color of the rulers in Malaysia . The name of the Malaysian flag is Jalur Gemilang meaning, stripes of glory.

For centuries, flags have been used to symbolize everything from nations to basic beliefs. Whether flying high over a castle, a war ship or a local place for worship, flags are used as a simple visual way of communicating. Today, flags are still used every day in many of the same ways they've been used in the past. However, as technology has taken hold new venues have appeared for flags. At FlagPictures.org, we've got royalty free computer wallpaper, cellphone wallpapers, screen savers, cool buddy icons, avatars and more in our vast image library of flags. Whether your downloading vector art such as a printable clip art flag or a royalty free image for use on a website, we've got a huge selection for you to download and do with as you please.

Welcome to the World Flag Database

A New USA Flag Shop

Good news for all our American users - I have entered into a sponsorship deal with United States Flag Store. This means that you can now buy flags from a US supplier, rather than the UK. The "Flag Shop" and "Buy this flag" buttons now all point to the appropriate places on the United States Flag Store. As a bonus, their sponsorship means that I have been able to drop all the popup adverts from the site. In future these should not appear, a change I hope will meet with your approval.

British Flags & Emblems

My book is now available for purchase online. It covers Britain's various national flags and the protocol governing their use, the Royal Arms and Royal Standards, military flags and Colours, flags at sea, Britain's rank insignia and much more.

You can buy it online or read a review by Captain Malcolm Farrow RN.


Full index
This is a complete list of all the countries, territories and sub-national regions covered by the database. There are over 260 pages on countries and international organizations. Each page contains basic information on the country, including its formal name, capital city, area, population, currency, languages, and religions. The flags include the national and state flags, ensigns, and sub-national flags.


Single letter indices
Probably the fastest way to find a country is to use the individual alphabetic indices. These include miniature versions of each country's flag. To see the countries starting with a particular letter click on the letters on the left. If you can't find the place you want, try the complete index instead.
