About the flag

The flag shown is that of Sweden, recognizable by its blue field and yellow Scandinavian cross. This design dates back to the 16th century and reflects Sweden's rich Viking history, where the colors are believed to symbolize the sky and the golden crowns of Swedish royalty. Sweden's flag is one of the oldest national flags still in use today, and its simple yet elegant design makes it easy to remember. The blue and yellow colors also stand for peace and the richness of the country’s natural landscapes. To remember it, think of Sweden's stunning lakes and golden fields, encapsulated in its flag.
