Tell them apart
Denmark vs Sweden flag
How to tell them apart
The flags of Denmark and Sweden are both Nordic crosses, with the upright set towards the hoist, so they’re easy to mix up at a glance. This is what gives each one away:
- Denmark is a white cross on red; Sweden is a yellow cross on blue.
- They share no colours, so the field colour settles it.
