The flag of Denmark (Danish: Danmarks flag [Dannebrog]) is a red flag with a white Scandinavian cross extending to the edge of the flag. White symbolizes peace and honesty, while red symbolizes strength, courage, and hardiness. Its height-to-width ratio changed from 28:34 (14:17) to 28:37. The Danish flag was adopted in 1748.

Its coat of arms consists of three blue lions crowned with nine red lilypads (normally symbolizing heraldic hearts) on a golden shield with a royal crown on it.
