All Flags of Europe.
There are 45 sovereign countries in Europe, and every one of their flags is listed on this page with its capital city.
Europe's flags are a masterclass in design language. Tricolours (France, Italy, Germany, Ireland) tell you about revolutions. Nordic crosses (Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland) share a family look but each has its own colour. And the Union Jack layers three older flags into one.

The Nordic cross
Denmark's Dannebrog, from the 13th century, is the world's oldest continuously used national flag. Its offset cross inspired every other Nordic flag. Learn one, and you're most of the way to learning all five.
Tricolours everywhere
The French Tricolore inspired flag design across the continent. Horizontal or vertical, three stripes usually stand for a revolution, a union, or the ideals of the nation.
