Flag of Greenland

Description
The flag of Greenland (Greenlandic: Erfalasorput or Kalaallit erfalasuat, Danish: Grønlands flag) was designed by Greenland native Thue Christiansen. It features two equal horizontal bands of white (top) and red (bottom) with a counter-changed red-and-white disk slightly to the hoist side of centre. The entire flag measures 18 by 12 parts; each stripe measures 6 parts; the disk is 8 parts in diameter, horizontally offset by 7 parts from the hoist to the centre of the circle, and vertically centered.

Its local name in the Greenlandic language is Erfalasorput, which means "our flag". The term Aappalaartoq (meaning "the red") is also used for both the Greenlandic flag and the flag of Denmark (Dannebrog). Today, Greenlanders display both the Erfalasorput and the Dannebrog—often side by side. The flag of Greenland is the only national flag of a Nordic country or territory without a Nordic cross, but is similar to the cultural Sámi flag, which also features a circular design and counterchanging of field and charge.

National Anthem of Greenland:
(ENG)
Our country, which has become so old
your head is all covered with white hair.
Always held us, your children, in your bosom
and gave us the riches of your coasts.

As middle children in the family
we blossomed here
Kalaallit, we want to call ourselves
before your proud and honourable head.

With a burning desire to develop what you have
to give, renewing,
removing your obstacles
our desire to move is forward, forward.

The way of matured societies
is our zealous goal to attain;
the effect of speech and letters
we long to behold

Humbleness is not the course,
Kalaallit wake up and be proud!
A dignified life is our goal;
courageously take a stand

(GRE)
Nunarput, utoqqarsuanngoravit
Niaqqut ulissimavoq qiinik.
Qitornatit kissumiaannarpatit

Akullequtaasutut merlertutut
