There Are No Simple Symbols

It’s a fairly standard practice to stand in respect for your country’s flag. But if you’ve ever accidentally acknowledged the wrong flag as that of your own country, you might have been at the Games of the XI Olympiad in 1936. But at least all national anthems are unique.

Aren’t they?

Here are some links that could help prevent an international incident.
