    Denmark Legend holds that the Danes were in a battle that was going badly, and defeat seemed imminent. However as a Danish priest prayed to God, the Danes moved closer to victory. Just as the Danes were about to win, a red flag with a white cross fell from the sky and the Danes won the battle. Sweden According to the mythology, a Swedish king saw a golden cross in the sky as he landed in Finland. Seeing this as a sign from God he adopted the golden cross against a blue background. Finland The blue coloring represents the country's 190,000 lakes, the blue sky, and white for the snow that covers the land in winter. Germany In the early 1800’s, during Napoleon’s conquest of Europe, the Germans struggled against the occupying French forces. A certain volunteer Prussian army defeated Napolean’s army and saved Germany’s freedom. The German flag is a tribute to that army’s colors, which were black with red trim and gold buttons. Belgium Belgium’s flag was designed to represent it as an independent country. Black, gold and red are symbolic of the country's coat of arms; black representing the shield; gold representing the lion, and red representing the lion's claws and tongue. The stripes are vertical, as a tribute to France.

  • Korea: Education on Both Sides of the DMZ
    NCTA ‐ Columbus Spring 2011 Sharon Drummond Korea: Education on Both Sides of the DMZ Lesson Summary: Students will compare and contrast North Korea and South Korea through a classroom simulation. Each half of the class will compile a fact file for one country while learning about the structure and curriculum of its educational system. Then, students will compare and contrast their information with a counterpart from “the other side.” Through a class discussion, students will summarize the similarities and differences of North and South Korea. Videos, photos, articles, and blogs from journalists who have visited North Korea will offer students a glimpse into the schools and life of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. As an alternative, the teacher could present a lesson in a simulated South Korean classroom on one day and a North Korean classroom the next. Students would then discuss their experiences on a third day, generating a list of similarities and differences and reaching conclusions about the educational systems of Korea.

  • Some National Flags from Our History
    Some National Flags from our History . National Flag of Scotland Full country name: Scotland Capital city: Edinburgh The National Flag of Scotland is the Cross of Saint Andrew. St. Andrew is Scotland's patron saint. His cross is now Scotland's flag. The flag consists of a dark blue base with a white St. Andrew's cross through the middle of it. Tradition states that Scotland adopted St. Andrew, a disciple of Jesus who is said to have been crucified on a cross with diagonal beams (X-shaped), as their patron saint. His remains were preserved, and Constantine wanted to remove them to Constantinople. A Greek monk was warned by an angel of this intent, and was instructed to take them to the ends of the Earth. This he did, until he was shipwrecked in Scotland. St. Andrew's bones were buried in Scotland. A second legend says that King Angus, about to lead his army into battle against a stronger force, spent the night praying for divine guidance and St. Andrew appeared in his dreams, promising victory. The next day the King saw white clouds form a saltire (cross) when he looked up into the blue sky. After this vision Angus led his soldiers to victory and he proclaimed St. Andrew as the patron saint of Scotland. The Saint Andrew cross is one of the oldest national flags of all, dating back at least to the 12th century, although the honor of the oldest flag among modern nations generally falls to the flag of Denmark.
