{{Lua|Module:Fba}}
==Description==
<code><nowiki>{{fbaicon|nation|variant|size=optional}}</nowiki></code>

Produces a flag icon to the wikilinked national football association article. The list of article titles of the national football associations is located at [[Template:Fba/list]].
;Parameters
*''nation''&nbsp;– Use either the name of the nation or the three-letter country code as used by [[List of FIFA country codes|FIFA]]
*''variant'' (optional)&nbsp;– Specifies an alternate (historical) flag to use.  This parameter is documented by the appropriate template in [[:Category:Country data templates]].
*''size'' (optional)&nbsp;– Can be used to change the flag icon size (use sparingly!)
*''old'' (optional)&nbsp;- When given a value (e.g. "yes"/"y"/"1"), will link to the country's former football association (only applies to Brunei and Kenya)

==Examples==
*<code><nowiki>{{fbaicon|Argentina}}</nowiki></code> → {{fbaicon|Argentina}}
*<code><nowiki>{{fbaicon|ENG}}</nowiki></code> → {{fbaicon|ENG}}
*<code><nowiki>{{fbaicon|Italy|1861}}</nowiki></code> → {{fbaicon|Italy|1861}}
*<code><nowiki>{{fbaicon|USA|1776}}</nowiki></code> → {{fbaicon|USA|1776}}
*<code><nowiki>{{fbaicon|Kenya}}{{fbaicon|Kenya|old=yes}}</nowiki></code> → {{fbaicon|Kenya}}{{fbaicon|Kenya|old=yes}}

==Alternative to avoid Wikipedia's [[WP:PEIS|Post-expand include size]] limit==
Pages with many flag icons may come close to or exceed Wikipedia's [[WP:PEIS|Post-expand include size]] limit.  In these cases consider using lua modules instead:
* {{module link|flag|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} is a wrapper for [[Module:Flagg]] that can reduce the include size when invoked directly. For basic use, {{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|''country''}} can be replaced with {{mlx|flag|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|''country''}}.
