Tradition states that the colors of the Malta flag were given to Malta by Count Roger of Sicily, in 1091. The banner of Count Roger was a checkered red and white flag and he gave a set from this banner. However, many say that this claim is only a legend developed through time. This flag was adopted upon Malta's independence, on September 21, 1964. The Maltese flag is unique in that it is the only national flag in the world bearing a decoration from another country, in this case the United Kingdom. Show more
