Veda #69 : Flag of Indonesia VS Monaco

Day 69
"What is the difference between Indonesia's flag and Monaco's flag?"


What is the similarities of Indonesia, Monaco, Poland, and Singapore?
The answer is simple, they all use the same color configuration on their national flag.
What is the difference then?
Poland's flag is very similar to Indonesia, only upside down.
Singapore's flag is red at top and white at bottom, but they added crescent moon and 5 stars.
Monaco's flag is exactly look alike Indonesia's flag. Where's the difference then?

The answer is located on their proportions.
Indonesia's official flag measurement is 2,5:1,5. Common measurement used by other nation flags around the world.
Monaco's official flag measurement is "only" 2:1,5.
that's it. now you know.
