National Flag  |
The flag flown by citizens of the country and is usually used to represent the country abroad. For some countries the state flag would be used instead (eg. Argentina, Haiti and Spain). Many countries, for example the United States, only have national flags, using them for all purposes, including on vessels. |
Naval Ensign |
The flag flown by naval vessels and often at naval bases. Naval ensigns often take the form of the national flag in the canton of either a plain coloured flag or a simple cross flag. |
