The mottoUnited in diversity

World flags have incredible importance to countries and to the people that inhabit them. They are a way to unify people under a common symbol.

The symbolism behind each unique flag varies, even in flags with similar layouts. Many have religious connotations, such as the cross for Christians, the crescent for Islamic states, or the Star of David for the Jewish state of Israel.

The European Union

European Union FlagThe flag of the European Union is twelve gold stars arranged in a perfect circle on a blue background. Each of the five-point stars are positioned point-up and are placed according to the hands of the clock on a 2:3 proportioned rectangular background.

The twelve stars, considered to be a number of perfect completeness, symbolize ideals of unity, solidarity and harmony among the European peoples. The EU flag was originally designed for the Council of Europe in 1955 and was later adopted by the European Parliament in 1983
