Nepal’s flag is the only triangular flag in the world. There are many theories relating to its meaning. The triangular shape of the flag represents the Himalayas, the red color represents bravery, blue represents peace and the sun and moon represent eternity. 
Our flag is considered to be thousands of years old and its shape carries a big importance in Vedic Yantra. The upper pointing triangle represents fire or hot elements, the downward pointing triangle represents water or cold elements. 
Combining the two triangles, a flag was constructed in the vedic era which still exists today as the National Flag of Nepal.
