The national symbol of country is a significant emblem that represents the nation’s identity, culture, and heritage. It reflects the values, history, and pride of the people. National symbols include flags, emblems, flowers, animals, and monuments that hold special meaning. For example, the bald eagle is the national symbol of the United States, symbolizing strength and freedom. The lotus is India’s national flower, representing purity and enlightenment. These symbols foster unity, patriotism, and a sense of belonging among citizens. Respecting and preserving national symbols is essential as they embody the spirit and sovereignty of the nation.
