{{??????? ?????????? {{{1}}}|flagcountry/core|variant=|size=|name=}}
{{flagcountry|nation|variant|size=}}
Produces a flag icon attached to a wikilinked article. This template is similar to the more widely used {{
flag
}} template, but is more useful for two situations described below.
- Parameters
- nation
? Use either the name of the nation or in some cases, a three-letter country code (e.g.
ISO 3166-1 alpha-3
)
- variant
(optional) ? Specifies an alternative (historical) flag to use. This parameter is documented by the appropriate template in
Category:??????? ?????????? templates
.
- size
(optional) ? Can be used to change the flag icon size.

{{flagcountry|ITA}}

?????
- In this case, the country code for Italy (ITA) is used to produce the correct flag and wikilink. In many cases, it would probably be preferable to use {{
flag
}} to produce the same result, such as
{{flag|Italy}}
for this example. However, {{
flagcountry
}} could be used within other templates (such as infoboxes) so that country codes can be used for those template parameters.
{{flagcountry|ITA|1861}}
→
?????
- Similar to the first example, but with a flag variant parameter to select a historical flag image. Note that the wikilinked article is
[[Italy]]
.
{{flagcountry|Kingdom of Italy}}
→
?????
- In this example, a different
country data template
is used, to select an alternative article for the wikilink (in this case,
[[Kingdom of Italy|Italy]]
). Compare with
{{flag|Kingdom of Italy}}
→
?????
, in which "Kingdom of Italy" is the display text for the wikilink. Therefore, the choice of
flagcountry
or
flag
depends on the desired display text; in all other respects, the templates are identical.
