What are our national symbols?
By using the dictionary, the meaning of the word symbol is obtained; image, figure or descry whereupon materially or of word a moral and intellectual concept appears, by some similarity or correspondence, that is understood by perception between this concept and that image.
So that means that the national symbols are those that represent all the aspects of a nation (set of the inhabitants of a country, generally of a same origin, language, customs, tradition and a common future). They serve as identification for the different countries.
