Similar Flags
With some variation in the particular shade of red and the size proportions of the vertical bands, the design of the flag of Canada, adopted in 1965, is similar to that of Peru. The main difference between both flags, aside from the length of the bands, are the symbols which for Canada is the traditional maple leaf. Other similar flags include those whose colors are horizontal, such as the Austrian triband.

Famous quotes containing the words similar and/or flags:
“We do not need to minimize the poverty of the ghetto or the suffering inflicted by whites on blacks in order to see that the increasingly dangerous and unpredictable conditions of middle- class life have given rise to similar strategies for survival. Indeed the attraction of black culture for disaffected whites suggests that black culture now speaks to a general condition.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
“The flags are natures newly found.
Rifles grow sharper on the sight.
There is a rumble of autumnal marching,
From which no soft sleeve relieves us.
Fate is the present desperado.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
