click this link to see the flag of indonesia http://www.embassyofindonesia.org/land/i...



im really confuse with this flags because its almost 100% the same. or if it has difference, what is it?

i hope you will answer me correctly.

Answers:
You are right, the flags for both countries are identical. They have a horizontal red stripe over a horizontal white stripe but they each have their own meaning:

Monaco's red and white flag are the heraldic colors of the Grimaldi family. The colors appear as a diamond shaped pattern on the shield of the family's coat of arms.

Indonesia's flag's red stripe symbolizes blood and represents the human body; the white stripe represents the soul and the spirit; and when put together the red and white represent a complete human being.

Hope this helps.

I thought the Monaco flag had their coat of arms on it.
