Read “Flags” and answer questions 1 to 5.
Flags have existed for over 3000 years. The earliest flags were wooden or metal poles topped with a carving.
About 2000 years ago pieces of fabric were added to some poles for decoration. Over the next 500 years the free-flying part of the flag became more important.
Every country today has its own flag. Many groups and organisations also have a flag which stands for, or symbolises, the aims of the group.
The United Nations
The flag depicts a world map, centred on the north pole. The map is surrounded by an olive wreath, symbolising peace and co-operation. The flag is blue and white.
