Armenian flag is red/blue/orange no symbol(when they do have a symbol its half eagle half lion) look closely, polish flag has eagle with one head, serbian flag well they just like to steal everything from the albanians. The word albanian=shqipetar= son of the eagle.

Whoaaa that was way off topic. sorry CL
