Flags with the Moon

*I mean no disrespect by displaying national flags in a grid. It is good practice to display all national flags at the same level, but I chose to display the flags alphabetically in a grid so that is it easier to make comparisons among the flags. I apologize and welcome suggestions for better methods.
