What’s the Point of a ‘Flag’ in National Identity?

A flag is like a group’s identity card. It shows who you are, your country, your team, or even your family. Think about it: when you wave the flag, you're saying, 'We’re all in this together!' Flags help people feel connected and proud of where they come from.
