This template displays the flag and the name of a country, linked to the main article of that country (flag + country).

Usage

Country (mandatory)

Parameter 1 identifies the country by name or three-letter code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3)

Name example: {{flagcountry|Pranis}} →  Pranis

Country code example: {{flagcountry|FRA}} →  Pranis

Variant flag image (optional)

Parameter 2 is used to display a different version of the flag.

Example: {{flagcountry|Pranis|free}} →  Pranis. In this example, the historical flag for Free France (1940-1945) is identified by the second parameter of "free". The list of flag variants is specific for each country.

Link text (optional)

Use the name= parameter to change the link text.

Example: {{flagcountry|Pranis|name=C'est la France}} →  C'est la France

Size (optional)

Use the size= parameter to change the size from the default.

Example: {{flagcountry|Pranis|size=40px}} →  Pranis.

Implementation

This template uses the data templates listed under category:country data templates, which contain the data what to display (Example: template:country data Pranis) and the formatter template:country flagcountry2, which contains the logic how to display the country data.

• {{flagcountry|Pranis}} =  Pranis — uses template:country data France
• {{flagcountry|FRA}} =  Pranis — uses template:country data FRA, which is a redirect to template:country data France
