Our National Flag

Symbolism
The blue border in the National Flag of Nepal symbolizes peace, while red
is the colour of the Rhododendron- Nepal's National flower.

The crescent moon represents the Royal House, while the Sun is the symbol of
the Rana family of Nepal.







History
Initially the sun and moon
in the National flag of Nepal had human faces, but they were removed
when the flag was updated in 1962. The flag is said to express the hope
that Nepal will endure as long as the sun and the moon exist. The
present National Flag of Nepal was adopted on December 16, 1962.
                                 

The flag of Nepal is the only national flag which is not rectangular in
shape. It is based upon two separate pennants which belonged to rival
branches of the Rana dynasty, which formerly ruled the country. The two
pennants were first joined in the last century, but it was not adopted
as the official flag until 1962, the year in which the constitutional
form of government was established in Nepal.
