Nepal’s flag is the only non-rectangular national flag in the world. It consists of two single pennons (or pennants), known as the double-pennon. The crimson red indicates the bravery of Nepali people and is the country’s national color and the blue border denotes peace and harmony.

Nepal is one of the few countries in the world that has never been colonized by any foreign power, maintaining its sovereignty throughout history. It is the birthplace of Lord Buddha and has a rich history of ancient dynasties like the Licchavis and Mallas.

Nepal is home to 8 of the world's 14 highest peaks, including Mount Everest (8,848.86m). The country has diverse geography ranging from the lowland Terai plains to the towering Himalayas in the north, offering a unique blend of ecosystems.

The economy is dominated by agriculture, employing over 65% of the population. Tourism is another significant pillar, drawing trekkers and mountaineers from around the globe. Remittances from foreign employment also contribute substantially to the GDP.

Nepal has five major climatic zones, ranging from tropical in the south to arctic in the high Himalayas. This diversity allows for travel year-round, though spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) are the most popular seasons.
