Nepal is the only country in the world whose national flag is not rectangular. Instead, it features two stacked triangles, which symbolize the Himalaya Mountains and represent the two major religions in Nepal: Hinduism and Buddhism. The flag’s deep crimson red color signifies bravery and the blue border symbolizes peace and harmony. Within the flag are two emblems: a white moon, which represents coolness and serenity, and a white sun, symbolizing the hope and brightness of the Nepalese people. This unique design not only sets Nepal apart in terms of flag shapes but also embodies the rich cultural heritage and geographical features of this mountainous nation.
