Naval Ensigns

Naval ensigns are sovereign flags flown by navies to identify their country and maritime authority. They serve as national symbols on ships, marking their nationality and often indicating the vessel's purpose or allegiance. Each country designs its naval ensign with distinctive colors, symbols, or patterns that reflect its heritage and naval tradition. These flags are displayed prominently on ships during official events, at sea, and in port, helping ensure clear identification and honoring naval identity and sovereignty.
