    In term of wild life, it's probably worth noting that Trinidad has the Green Anaconda, worlds largest snake, and is the only Caribbean island to do so. We are also only one of two Caribbean countries,(along with Margarita) to have the Ocelot.

    Although I've personally always been annoyed with the concept of a country with two names with the word "and", it's the first time for me to see their coat of arms, and I was just amazed, it's beautiful (just like pretty much any other British-style coat of arms).
    I mean, dang! The symbolism, the philosophy, colours, the motto; it's just perfect.

Many Other flags tend to be similar and confusing to distinguish, but 🇹🇹 just pops up in a see of flags
