What do the wooden poles with flags on them scattered throughout the world symbolize?

I see these poles with flags and markers in the ground around them all over the game world:

Considering how many there are in the game, do they have any significance or are they decorative only? There isn't anything that I can interact with at them, and I don't recall any quests that utilized them in anyway, but since they are all over the world, I would imagine they have some sort of purpose.
