In the Unated States flags are all around: every hose have it, every little camp, school, office or even mall has it`s own flag.

In Russia only authorities decorate cities with flags befor official holydays. Mostly before the Victory Day wich is May, 9 – day the Grate Patriotic War has been finished.

By the way it is a big priblem to discuss the WWII with Europeans and Americans – all the Russians know from school that we won the war. So take it easy and try to make your point clear if you`d like to say anything different to this official thesis.

80% Russians suppose flag (not the hymn, arms or Red Square) to be the main symbol of Russia. But who knows what does it means? Stars are states on the USA flag. I know it, but to answer what are three colors of my country`s flag I have to look at Wiki.

The three-colored fkags comes from pre-Soviet monarchy times, so here are contemporery and and meanings:

Wite (on the top) is for piece, purity and perfection (or Liberty)

Blue is for constancy, faith, loyalty (or Our Lady)

Red is for energy, power and blood, sacrificed for Motherland (or Аutocracy)
