Summary

DescriptionFlag map of the world.svg

Deutsch: Eine Karte, "die alle UN-Staaten mit ihrer Flagge zeigt." Das Gebiet der Westsahara ist grau eingefärbt, weil kein UN-Staat dieses Gebiet repräsentiert.

English: A map showing the flags of the world, in equirectangular projection. The countries shown are the members of the United Nations. Western Sahara is in light grey. Because it is considered——to be, a Non-Self-Governing Territory with no administration (source), therefore there is no UN member state flag——to represent that place.

Note: In the SVG file, the countries. And continents are grouped roughly according to the UN Geoscheme classification, to easily find specific places. The continents are each on their own individual layers.

Español: Un mapa que muestra las banderas del mundo, en proyección equirrectangular. Los países que se muestran son miembros de las Naciones Unidas. El Sáhara Occidental está en gris claro porque se considera un territorio no autónomo sin administración, por lo tanto, no hay una bandera de un estado miembro de la ONU para representar ese lugar.

Français : Carte montrant les drapeaux du monde. Projection équirectangulaire. Les drapeaux présents correspondent aux membres des nations unies. En conséquences le sahara occidental est en gris, car considéré par l'ONU comme une territoire sans gouvernement autonome.

Українська: Мапа відображає всі країни світу, площі яких заповнені кольорами їхніх прапорів.

中文（繁體）：本圖顯示的是全球聯合國會員國國家的國旗圖像，以全景圖方式顯示。非聯合國會員國的國家，不會在此圖中顯示其國旗。
