What about denmarks flag makes it unusual?

The danish flag plays a huge role in the danish culture. It is one of the only flags in the world with an official name, "Dannebrog". In 2010 Denmark has 18 official days where one flies the flag. They are each year determined by the Ministry of Justice. Besides that, one flies their flag at birthdays, death, weddings and so on. That makes the danish flag one the most prominent flags of the world, and it is probably the most used as well. Sorry for my bad English :-)
