The history of Nepal began in, and centers on, the Kathmandu Valley. Over the centuries Nepal's boundaries have extended to include huge tracts of neighboring India and contracted to little more than the Kathmandu Valley and a handful of nearby city-states. Though it has ancient roots, the modern state of Nepal emerged only in the 18th century.
In Nov. 1990, King Birendra promulgated a new constitution and introduced a multiparty parliamentary democracy in Nepal. Under pressure amid massive pro-democracy protests in April 2006, King Gyanendra gave up a direct rule and reinstated Parliament, which then quickly moved to diminish the King's power.
Hundreds of independent states existed on the Indian subcontinent prior to the period of British control there in the 17th-19th centuries. Many of these countries, including Nepal, had state flags of their own, their symbols usually representing the ruling dynasty. Frequently, the flag designs, shapes, and colors were (by European standards) unusual. Most of those flags disappeared as the British extended their control; the remainder lost international validity with the establishment of independent India in 1947.
The flag of Nepal consists of a crimson/red base that is outlined in blue. The top triangle of Nepal's flag has a white emblem of the moon and the bottom triangle has a white emblem of the sun.
The color of the flag is crimson red similar to the color of the national flower, the rhododendron. Red also stands for conquest in war. The blue in the borders stands for peace. The upper part has a star and crescent moon combined while at its lower portion is a symbol of the sun.
The present flag, which omits those features, was established under the new constitution of December 16, 1962. The same symbols appear on the dozens of different civil and military flags used by Nepalese officials. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Nepal Flag for the future.
