North America in the broadest sense — including Central America and the Caribbean — encompasses 23 sovereign nations, from continental giants to tiny island states. The region's flags blend influences from the British Empire, the Spanish Empire, indigenous traditions, and the revolutionary spirit of the Americas.
Many Caribbean flags share a young, vibrant design language. Jamaica's gold, green, and black diagonal cross — adopted at independence in 1962 — is the only national flag in the world to contain none of the colors red, white, or blue. The triangular blue field of Trinidad and Tobago's neighbors and Cuba's lone star draw on flags of liberation movements, while Haiti's blue and red horizontal banner is one of the oldest in the Americas, dating back to 1803.
Further north, the Stars and Stripes of the United States — with 13 stripes for the original colonies — and the iconic red maple leaf of Canada are among the most recognized flags in the world. Mexico's eagle-and-snake emblem traces back to an Aztec legend about the founding of Tenochtitlán. How many can you recognize on sight?
