European Countries and Flags

Draw Lines From the Name of the Country to its Flag.

Short Description:

Draw lines from the country to its national flag.

Flags are national symbols. Every country has got a specific flag as its national symbol. The first flags were flown in the 18th century to tell others that we own a piece of land (‘proclaim a possession’) and that we rule over the people and land (‘proclaim sovereignty’).”

About this Activity

“In earlier centuries certain groups of people had decorated spears and staff which showed their cultural symbols. Later people also used ribbons, leather, or silk decorations on the spears to distinguish their group from another group.

The early explorers always put crosses or sculptures up when they landed on an unknown land, but later they used flags to proclaim their presence or show the sovereignty.
