Flags beyond the 195 countries
As well as the flags of the world's sovereign nations, many territories, regions and constituent countries have flags of their own — from England, Scotland and Wales in the United Kingdom, to the Faroe Islands and Greenland (Denmark), Martinique and Réunion (France), and Hong Kong and Macau (China), to self-governing Taiwan. This section collects them together, grouped by the country each one belongs to.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a country and a territory?
A country is a fully sovereign, independent state — usually a member of the United Nations. A territory or region is governed by, or forms part of, a sovereign country, but often has its own distinct flag, culture and identity. England, Martinique and the Faroe Islands are examples.
Why isn't England one of the 195 countries?
England is a constituent country of the United Kingdom, which is the sovereign state. The UK — made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland — is the country that sits among the world's 195 nations, but each of its nations has its own flag.
