Originally, this flag didn't have a crown. There's a fun story that it was hastily added to distinguish it from Haiti's flag after they were discovered to be identical at the 1936 Olympics.

With its fairytale-like image of a small kingdom, it's used when talking about Europe's hidden gems or to convey a special, luxurious feel. Sharing the Olympic story behind this flag with a friend makes for great trivia.
