This documentation is transcluded from Template:Flag/doc and needs to be edited separately.

Shows a small sprite of a country flag, using icons from the famfamfam flag icon set.

Usage

The template takes a single parameter, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of the desired country.

  • US
Flag of the United States of America
  • FR Flag of France
  • Note that this may not always be the obvious code for the country. For example:

    • GB Flag of the United Kingdom (Great Britain)
    • DE Flag of Germany (Deutschland)
    • CH Flag of Switzerland (Confoederatio Helvetica)

    A few other flags are included for other entities, which may be used (but in most situations probably shouldn't be):

    • CAT Catalonia
    • EU Europe
    • GB-ENGLAND England
    • GB-SCOTLAND Scotland
    • GB-WALES Wales

    Known problems

    The famfamfam icon set is rather old (from 2005, in fact), and now contains some errors and omissions, including:

    • CD Democratic Republic of the Congo. Modified flag in 2006.
    • EC Ecuador. Icon is missing the flag's central seal (making it visually identical to the flag of Colombia).
    • EH Western Sahara. Icon displays the flag's reverse side.
    • IQ Iraq. Modified flag in 2008.
    • LS Lesotho. Introduced new flag in 2016.
    • LY Libya. Introduced new flag in 2011.
    • MM Myanmar. Introduced new flag in 2010.
    • MR Mauritania. Modified flag in 2017.
    • RS Serbia. Modified flag in 2010.
    • SS — South Sudan. Missing; became sovereign in 2011.
    • XK — Kosovo. Missing; became sovereign in 2008.
