I like my country's flag more. Too bad so many other countries stole the colours.

The Netherlands FTW! ^-^ I try to speak English as well as I can and I'm asking all of you native English speakers: How good is my English? I'm very curious. ^-^Rayman4321 wrote:I'm from the Netherlands, i speak dutch, english and a bit german and french.

The elements on the Portuguese flag do have meanings:
Green: Symbolizes the hope.
Red: Symbolizes the bravure and the blood of the Portuguese people that died on combat.
Armillary Sphere: Represents the world that Portuguese Navigators discovered on the XV and XVI centuries and the people with they which traded ideas and the comercialization.
The 7 Castles: Symbolize the Moorish fortified locations that D. Afonso Henriques conquered.
The 5 Blue Shields: Symbolize the 5 Moorish Kings defeated by D. Afonso Henriques on Ourique's Battle.
The 5 white dots inside each shield: Represent the 5 wounds of Christ.
