Did you ever wonder how the world’s national flags have developed? There are some interesting stories about the historical and cultural backgrounds of many flags. Knowing them and being able to talk about them with your business partners may break the ice at the next business meeting!

On Matador Network you will find the stories behind the flags, like the odd-shaped, pointed flag of Nepal. Did you know that the shape symbolizes the peeks of the Himalayas?
