Nepal is an outlier when it comes to flag shape, as it stands out from the norm (rather “two triangles stacked on top of each other”) since according to them: the flag represents Himalaya Mountains & both religions: Hinduism & Buddhism, also the red triangular flag has been a Hindu symbol of victory since the time of Ramayana and Mahabharata.
That is in contrast to most countries flags as a majority are rectangular in their shape (no matter where, from USA, UK, Canada, Japan, Germany, Poland, etc.). I mean, why are most flags rectangle by default rather than being unique on using another shape? I mean, Nepal is the only country where a flag is designed from another shape that differs from a rectangle.
