Template:Country data Malta 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.
