Which country has the oldest continuously used national flag?

The country with the oldest continuously used national flag is Denmark. The Danish flag, known as the Dannebrog, has been in use since the early 14th century. According to legend, the flag fell from the sky during a battle in Estonia in 1219, and the Danish king claimed victory after seeing it as a sign from God. Since then, the Dannebrog has been a symbol of Denmark's proud history and cultural identity.

Other countries with long histories of flag usage include Scotland, which has used its St. Andrew's Cross since the 9th century, and Austria, which has used its red and white striped flag since the 13th century.
