Template:Country data Botswana

Template documentation

Template:Country data Botswana is an internal data container not intended to be transcluded directly. It is used indirectly by templates such as flag, flagicon, and others.

This template is within the scope of WikiProject Flag Template, a collaborative effort to maintain flag templates on Wikipedia. A more thorough discussion of the flag template system, including parameters not described here, can be found on the project page.

Standard parameters

Parameter name	Value	Meaning
`alias`	`Botswana`	Main article name (Botswana)
`flag alias`	`Flag of Botswana.svg`	Image name (File:Flag of Botswana.svg, shown on right)

Military ensigns

This template includes an air force ensign flag variant that can be used with Template:Air force:

{{air force|Botswana}} → Template:Air force
{{flagicon|Botswana|air force}} →

This nation's army ensign is the same as its national flag, so Template:Army produces the following:

{{army|Botswana}} → Template:Army
