520 _aThis encyclopedia aims to provide definitive new visual reference to all the international flags. Apart from that, it attempts to discuss the origin and development of flags, from the Egyptian standards dating from 3100BC, to flags from the classical and medieval periods and the ensigns of maritime nations of the 20th century. Each flag is illustrated with information on its date of adoption, proportions and symbolic meaning.
