Iraq, the capital of Baghdad, one of the four ancient civilizations in the world, is located in the southwest of Asia and the northeast of Arabian Peninsula. Iraq's oil industry is the backbone of its economy, and its crude oil reserves are second only to Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and Iran in the world.

Iraq is located in the southwest of Asia, with a land area of about 437,000 square kilometers (including 924 square kilometers in the neutral zone between Iraq and Saudi Arabia and 3,522 square kilometers in Iraq), bordering Turkey in the north, Iran in the east, Syria and Jordan in the west, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait in the south and the Persian Gulf in the southeast.

The national symbol of Iraq

1. The names of Iraq are Iraq and the Republic of China.

2. The Iraqi flag is rectangular with a length-width ratio of 3: 2. The flag is made up of three parallel rectangles, red, white and black. There are three green five-pointed stars in the middle of the white, and the words "God is supreme" are written on it in Arabic. The four colors are pan-Arabic, representing the four dynasties of Muhammad's descendants.

In addition, red represents courage and revolution, white represents greatness and peace, black represents jihad victory and oil, and green represents land. On June 22, 2008, the Iraqi parliament passed a temporary bill to amend the national flag, valid for one year, and removed the three green stars representing the slogan of revival.
