      Armenia, Georgia and a bunch of other countries on this map are NOT in the middle east.

      This is wrong.

      Israel’s oldest national symbol is the coat of arms, featuring a Menorah, that dates back to the Hasmonean period.

      You could go further with a pomegranate but that’s not really a national symbol.

      Lots of things wrong here.

      Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan is wrong. The Shahada and the words allahu akbar are over a thousand years old. The star of david is also much older than 1897.

      The star and crescent, as an Ottoman banner, appeared as early as 1480 in portolan charts and continued to appear more systematically and extensively in many variants. Especially after the 18th century, the star and crescent became the sole Ottoman symbol. Finally, in 1793, an imperial decree abolished all other variants, and the current red flag with a crescent and star was declared the only official flag. Since the Ottoman State was the last legitimate Caliphate(the political head of Sunni Muslims), the crescent and star were adopted by other Muslim states as well.

      Interesting post, however regarding the Symbol used in the Lebanese national flag was first used around 1800 centuries, especially among the Maronite Christians in Mount Lebanon Green cedar tree (Cedar libani) with referencing below it Psalms 92:12, “the righteous flourish like the palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon”) in October 1848 during the era of the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate (autonomous district). with a white background, and was later adopted in 1918-1920, and under the French another varient was readopted in The Flag of the State of Greater Lebanon 1920-1943 (caried by Patriarch Elias Peter Hoayek influence to the Paris Conference). Thanks, just had to clarify this information.
