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 cannot feel strongly toward the totally unlike because it is unimaginable, unrealizable; nor yet toward the wholly like because it is stale—identity must always be dull company. The power of other natures over us lies in a stimulating difference which causes excitement and opens communication, in ideas similar to our own but not identical, in states of mind attainable but not actual.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
“Gentlemen, those confederate flags and our national standard are what has made this union great. In what other country could a man who fought against you be permitted to serve as judge over you, be permitted to run for reelection and bespeak your suffrage on Tuesday next at the poles.”
—Laurence Stallings (1894–1968)
