All Flags of Asia.
There are 47 sovereign countries in Asia, and every one of their flags is listed on this page with its capital city.
Asia's flags span more design ideas than any other continent. Solar discs (Japan, Bangladesh, Kazakhstan). Crescents and stars (Turkey, Pakistan, Malaysia). Bold single stars (Vietnam, China). And Nepal's flag, the only non-rectangular national flag on Earth.

Suns, stars and crescents
Look for repeating symbols: the rising sun, the crescent moon, the five-pointed star. Each one carries centuries of meaning, and once you learn what they stand for the flags become easier to remember.
The only non-rectangular flag
Nepal's flag is two stacked triangles — the sun on the bottom, the moon on top. It's the world's only national flag that isn't a rectangle, and it's a favourite question in every flag quiz.
