Czech Republic Notes on countries that start with C
C is one of the busiest letters. Canada is the second largest country in the world by area and flies the red maple leaf. China has the largest population among the C countries, and its red flag with five yellow stars is among the most recognizable.
Chile is a long, narrow country along the Pacific, and Colombia and Costa Rica are its Latin American neighbors on this list. Cuba is the largest island in the Caribbean. Croatia is known for the checkerboard on its coat of arms, and Cyprus has a map of the island on its flag.
In Africa you will find Cameroon, Chad, Comoros, Cape Verde and the Central African Republic. Cambodia is the only national flag to show a building, the temple of Angkor Wat.
Fun fact: Chad and Romania have almost identical flags.
