My favorite flag of all time

The study of flags is known as vexilology. The North American Vexillology Association is the largest organization in the world for flag enthusiasts and scholars.

Roman Mars did a TED Talk in 2015 about flag design that you should watch.

The Kingdom of Benin, also known as the Edo Kingdom or the Benin Empire, was a kingdom that once existed within what is now southern Nigeria.

This flag, brought to Britain by Lieutenant F. W. Kennedy after an expedition, may have been the Kingdom of Benin’s flag.

If not, it was the flag of some group of people living in Africa.

Either way, it’s my favorite flag of all time.
