Many countries still do this. Democracies, by the way.

I don't know of any other country that has children make a pledge to the flag of their nation every morning in school. A bunch sing the anthem, but the pledge seems uniquely American.

Are other countries so weird about their flag? I've heard this is uniquely American.
