Vexillology is the study of flags. A flag is a special kind of symbol that people use to represent something. For example, if you travel in different countries, each one will have a special flag that you can look for and recognize. Whenever you see the flag, it's like saying "this is ____" to the world. Vexillology is the study of flags, which means studying how people design them, why they use them, and what they mean.
