Monaco
The second-smallest country in the world, Monaco crams a glittering harbour, a Grand Prix and a casino into an area smaller than many city parks - with barely any of it flat.

Two equal horizontal bands of red over white, taken from the heraldic colours of the House of Grimaldi, Monaco's ruling family since the 13th century. Its design is nearly identical to Indonesia's flag but shorter in proportion.
