About the flag

Correct because it’s Greece. The blue and white evoke the Aegean Sea and foaming waves, and the cross reflects the nation’s Greek Orthodox heritage. The nine stripes are commonly said to match the syllables of the independence motto “Elefthería í Thánatos” (Freedom or Death), dating to the 1821–22 revolution. Memory tip: picture Greece’s whitewashed island villages against vivid blue seas—exactly the flag’s colors. To distinguish from the options: Albania shows a red field with a black double-headed eagle, Norway uses a Nordic cross, and Belgium has vertical black-yellow-red bands.
