Some political flags include national emblems, while others use the symbols and colours of the party represented. Some jurisdictions have laws that dictate which symbols are allowed to be used on political flags.
    • Military Flags – Some countries have specific flags flown by the armed forces during both peace and war time. These flags help identify allies during war and help with troop organization among other uses. The Canadian military uses a wide variety of custom flags.

Used as a promotional tool for business, flags can mark the location of a new store or to promote services.
    • Sports Flags- Flying team flags a fun way to express your support for your favourite athletes. Sports flags also help to distinguish different teams from each other during large events.
