About the flag of Bhutan

What it means: Yellow stands for the king's civil authority and orange for Buddhist spiritual tradition. The white dragon represents purity, and its jewels represent the nation's wealth and the people's security.

Did you know? Bhutan's name in its own language, Druk Yul, means 'The Thunder Dragon Kingdom', which is why a dragon is on the flag.
