Flag of Nepal Nepal (नेपाल) has its flag red with a blue border around the unique shape  of two overlapping right triangles. The smaller, upper triangle has a white stylized moon and the larger and lower triangle displays a white 12-pointed sun. The color red represents the rhododendron (the National flower of Nepal) and the color red is sign of victory and bravery.
