| + | Hay dos métodos utilizados generalmente en doblar la bandera británica. El primero se llama Romper y se usa generalmente durante izamiento de la bandera. La bandera británica se dobla por la mitad a lo largo (a lo largo de la franja roja central de la Cruz de San Jorge) y luego por la mitad, con el doblez llegando al borde. El último tercio de la bandera se dobla hacia dentro y luego el resto se enrolla hacia el lado al asta. La bandera se fija con un pedazo de algodón ligero o cuerda. Cuando izada, un fuerte tirón de la driza se romperá la cadena y permitirá que la bandera vuele libre. |
| − | There are two methods generally used in folding the Union Jack. The first is called Breaking and is generally used during flag raising.. The Union Jack is folded in half lengthwise (along the central red stripe of the St. George's Cross, and then in half again, bringing the fold to meet the edge of the flag. The last 1/3 of the flag is folded inwards (towards the heading) and then the remainder is rolled towards the heading. The flag is then secured with a piece of light cotton or string. When hoisted, a sharp tug of the halyard will break the string and allow the flag to fly free.

| − | The other method is generally used when the flag is used as a pall over a coffin. The folding method is similar to that used by the United States. More information can be found here: [http://www.flaginstitute.org/pdfs/Flying_Flags_in_the_United_Kingdom.pdf Flying Flags in the United Kingdom] Other than these, there are no prescribed methods of folding the Union Jack. It is to be hoisted and lowered with respect, and care taken that no part of it touches the ground.

| − | #To begin folding the flag, have two people hold it between them - one on either end - at waist height.
| |
| − | #The first fold should bring the bottom striped edge up to meet the top edge (which features the blue field of the canton). #The next fold should bring the folded edge to meet the open edge, leaving the blue field on the outside.
| |
| − | #Once that is completed, the person on the fly end (with the stripes) should begin folding the striped edge of the flag up to meet the open edge. The stripes on the folded portion wil now be perpendicular (At a right-angle) to the rest of the stripes.
| |
| − | #Make another triangular fold, bringing the edge of the triangle up to meet the flag's open edge (the stripes will now be parallel)
| |
| − | #Continue folding in this manner, keeping the folds even and tight. If done correctly, the point of the fold just before the blue field should just touch the edge of the blue.
| |
| − | #Fold again, until there is a small area of the blue field left - about the amount needed to make one more fold. Fold the corner of the hoist end so that the fold goes the opposite direction of the folded fly end. Tuck the folded hoist end into the flag, inserting it into the open part of the folded flag. Ensure it is well tucked in, and the folds are tight and neat. Inspect the folded flag, ensuring that no red is showing, only the blue field with stars. (See also [http://www.usflag.org/foldflag.html U.S. Flag.org] for a good explanation of proper folding).

The bottom edge of the attached halyard, or rope, should face upward. The halyard should dangle down. The face of the flag should be held perpendicular to the ground.
| |
| − | #Fold the flag lengthwise. Bring the bottom edge up and over so that it meets with the top edge. The total width of the flag should be halved. The red and white "Union Jack" should face out.

| − | #Make another lengthwise fold. Bring the new, folded bottom edge up and over so that it meets with the top edge. The total width should be quartered. The "Union Jack" should now be hidden by the new fold.

| − | #Bring the sides together. Fold the side furthest from the halyard by bring it up and over, allowing it to meet the halyard edge of the flag.Make sure that the edges are evenly aligned.

| − | #Make an "accordion" fold along the length. Bend a small square of the newly folded edge back so that it lies flush against the flag. Grab this new double-layer square and fold it forward, again bringing it flat against the flag. Continue folding backwards and forwards to the hoist edge, or the halyard, until the entire flag is compressed into an accordion fold.

The flag has four colours: blue, green, and two forms of yellow[1] (standard yellow for the middle band and what the Pantone system calls "sun yellow" for the sun). The blue band represents happiness and peace, the yellow band symbolizes economic development, and the green band symbolizes the hope of prosperity. The sun represents enlightenment. The new flag represents national unity, respect for work, heroism, and confidence in the future. It was adopted to avoid connotations to the 1994 genocide. The flag was designed by Alphonse Kirimobenecyo.

It is green with an orange-coloured African fish eagle in flight over a rectangular block of three vertical stripes, coloured, from left to right: red, black and orange. The placement of the eagle and block of stripes at the flag's fly is notable as most emblems and devices on flags are placed at centre or at the hoist.

| − | The United Kingdom – together with its dominion South Africa and fellow Allied power Belgium – occupied the majority of German East Africa in 1916 during the East African Campaign. Three years later, the British were tasked with administering the Tanganyika Territory as a League of Nations mandate. It was turned into a UN Trust Territory after World War II, when the LN dissolved in 1946 and the United Nations was formed. In 1954, the Tanganyika African Association – which spoke out against British colonial rule – became the Tanganyika African National Union (TANU) under the leadership of Julius Nyerere and Oscar Kambona. The aim of the political party was to attain independence for the territory; its flag was a tricolour consisting of three horizontal green, black and green bands.Shortly before independence in 1961, elections were held in Tanganyika. After the TANU won comprehensively, the British colonial leaders advised them to utilize the design of their party's flag as inspiration for a new national flag. As a result, yellow stripes were added, and Tanganyika became independent on 9 December 1961.

| − | In April 1964, both Tanganyika and Zanzibar united in order to form a single country – the United Republic of Tanzania. Consequently, the flag designs of the two states were amalgamated to establish a new national flag. The green and black colours from the flag of Tanganyika were retained along with the blue from Zanzibar's flag, with a diagonal design used "for distinctiveness".[3] This combined design was adopted on 30 June 1964. It was featured on the first set of stamps issued by the newly unified country.

| − | The colors and symbols of the flag carry cultural, political, and regional meanings. The green alludes to the natural vegetation and "rich agricultural resources" of the country, while black represents the Swahili people who are native to Tanzania. The blue epitomizes the Indian Ocean, as well as the nation's numerous lakes and rivers. The thin stripes stand for Tanzania's mineral wealth, derived from the "rich deposits" in the land. While Whitney Smith in the Encyclopædia Britannica and Dorling Kindersley's Complete Flags of the World describe the fimbriations as yellow, other sources – such as The World Factbook and Simon Clarke in the journal Azania: Archaeological Research in Africa – contend that it is actually gold.

| |
| − | When the Democratic Party ruled the country, a design for flag was proposed. It had vertical stripes of green-blue-green, separated by narrower yellow stripes, and in the centre had the silhouette of a yellow crane. After the party lost the national elections on April 25, 1962 the newly elected Uganda People’s Congress (UPC) rejected the former design and instead proposed the current design. It was based on the flag of UPC– a tricolor having horizontal strips of red, yellow and black. The British administration gave their approval to this design before the country's independence. The flag was designed by the Ugandan Minister of Justice, Grace Ibingira.

The raised leg of the crane symbolizes the forward movement of the country.

It was adopted on 20 February 2006. A new constitution, ratified in December 2005 and which came into effect in February 2006, promoted a return to a flag similar to that flown between 1963 and 1971, with a change from a royal blue to sky blue background. Blue represents peace. Red stands for "the blood of the country's martyrs, yellow the country's wealth; and the star a radiant future for the country."

The flag is based on the flag which was originally used by King Leopold's Association Internationale Africaine and was first used in 1877. The design was then implemented as the flag of the Congo Free State after the territory was recognized as an official possession of Leopold II at the Berlin Conference. After gaining independence from Belgium on 30 June 1960, the same basic design was maintained. However, six stars were incorporated to symbolise the six provinces of the country at the time. This design was used only from 1960 to 1963.

| − | The flag of the first Republic of Mobutu Sese Seko became the official banner after Mobutu established his dictatorship. This flag was used from 1966–1971 and consisted of the same yellow star, now made smaller, situated in the top corner of the hoist side, with a red, yellow-lined band running diagonally across the center. The red symbolized the people's blood; the yellow symbolized prosperity; the blue symbolized hope; and the star represented unity. This flag was changed when the country was renamed Zaire in 1971. The Zaire flag was created as part of Mobutu's attempted re-Africanization of the nation and was used officially until Mobutu's overthrow in the First Congo War.

| − | The Australian National Flag (the flag) was first flown in 1901. It is Australia's foremost national symbol and has become an expression of Australian identity and pride.The flag is paraded by our defense forces and displayed around the country at sporting events and by service organisations, schools, community groups and private citizens. The flag has three elements on a blue background: the Union Jack, the Commonwealth Star and the Southern Cross. The Union Jack in the upper left corner represents the history of British settlement. Below the Union Jack is a white Commonwealth, or Federation, star. It has seven points representing the unity of the six states and the territories of the Commonwealth of Australia. The star is also featured on the Commonwealth Coat of Arms. The Southern Cross is shown on the flag in white. It is a constellation of five stars that can only be seen from the southern hemisphere and is a reminder of Australia’s geography.

The green and white badge displays a red lion holding a shield that symbolizes the sinking of the Sea Venture about one mile off the coastline of Bermuda in the summer of 1609 by the founders of Bermuda. The ship was caught in a hurricane, so the captain intentionally struck a reef near the island saving all lives on board. <ref>http://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/flags/countrys/europe/bermuda.htm</ref>

The stylish red maple leaf has been the national symbol of Canada for over 150 years. Red and white are the official colors of Canada, proclaimed by King George V in 1921.<ref>http://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/flags/countrys/namerica/canada/caflag.htm</ref>

| − | Blue and red are the traditional colours of Paris, used on the city's coat of arms. Blue is identified with Saint Martin, red with Saint Denis. At the storming of the Bastille in 1789, the Paris militia wore blue and red cockades on their hats. White had long featured prominently on French flags and is described as the "ancient French colour" by Lafayette.[1] White was added to the "revolutionary" colors of the militia cockade to "nationalise" the design, thus creating the tricolour cockade.[1] Although Lafayette identified the white stripe with the nation, other accounts identify it with the monarchy.[3] Lafayette denied that the flag contains any reference to the red-and-white livery of the Duc d'Orléans. Despite this, Orléanists adopted the tricolour as their own.

| − | Blue and red are associated with the Virgin Mary the patron saint of France, and were the colours of Charlemagne's ensign and war cry, "Montjoie". The colours of the French flag may also represent the three main estates of the Ancien Régime (the clergy: white, the nobility: red and the bourgeoisie: blue). Blue, as the symbol of class, comes first and red, representing the nobility, comes last. Both extreme colours are situated on each side of white referring to a superior order.[4]
| |
| − | Lafayette's tricolour cockade was adopted in July 1789, a moment of national unity that soon faded. Royalists began wearing white cockades and flying white flags, while the Jacobins, and later the Socialists, flew the red flag. The tricolour, which combines royalist white with republican red, came to be seen as a symbol of moderation and of a nationalism that transcended factionalism.

| − | The three colours are occasionally taken to represent the three elements of the revolutionary motto, liberté (freedom: blue), égalité (equality: white), fraternité (brotherhood: red); this symbolism was referenced in Krzysztof Kieślowski's three colours film trilogy, for example.

The flag is known as Old Glory, and no one knows for certain who designed it. Most historians believe that U.S. Congressman, Francis Hopkinson was the original designer, while a few still believe that Betsy Ross, a Philadelphia seamstress, made the first one.<ref>http://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/namerica/usstates/usflags.htm</ref>

| − | The flag of Palau was adopted on 1 January 1981, when the island group separated from the United Nations Trust Territory and became a republic. Previously, the flag of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands was flown jointly with the United Nations and American flags. Like some other flags of several other Pacific island groups, blue is the colour used to represent the ocean and the nation's place within it.

| − | The flag's very simple design belies the depth of meaning attributed to it. The explanation for the choice of colours is rooted in the history and customs of the Palauan people. The bright blue of the field, which might be assumed to be symbolic of the Pacific Ocean, is in fact a representation of the transition from foreign domination to self-government. The golden disk, which sits slightly off centre toward the hoist, represents the full moon. The Palauans consider the full moon to be the optimum time for human activity. At this time of the month, celebrations, fishing, sowing, harvesting, tree-felling, and the carving of traditional canoes are carried out. The moon is a symbol of peace, love, and tranquility.

| − | The Marshall Islands were part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands administered by the United States, from which the Marshall Islands, Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia split. In common with other island nations in the region, this flag features the symbolic representation of the islands' place within the ocean. The rising diagonal band represents the equator, the star above representing this Northern Hemisphere archipelago. The white and orange portions of the band represent, respectively, the Ratak Chain ("sunrise") and the Ralik Chain ("sunset"), as well as symbolizing peace and courage. The star's 24 points represent the number of electoral districts, while the four elongated points represent the principal cultural centers of Majuro, Jaluit, Wotje and Ebeye.

| |
| − | The flag of the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) was adopted on 10 November 1979. The blue field represents the Pacific Ocean, while the four stars represent the states in the federation: Chuuk, Pohnpei, Kosrae and Yap, with the stars arranged like the points of the compass.

| − | The flag brings together element of previous flags flown over the islands. The Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands used a six star flag however the current flag excludes the stars representing Palau, the Marshall Islands and Northern Mariana, which chose not to participate in the Federation, and adds back a star because the Trust Territory flag combined two islands in the group in one of the six stars. The blue and white colors are those of the UN flag which flew over the islands from 1947 - 1965. The idea of stars representing states echos the US flag, which also flew over the islands for many years.
