The current flag was adopted in 1945, after the end of the Second World War. It is said to be one of the oldest flags still in contemporary use, representing the nation rather than the sovereign from the start. The colors represent strength and bravery (red), peace and honesty (white). The flag sometimes is presented with an eagle(in the past, a tw...
Until the Ottoman Empire incorporated Bulgaria into its lands, the flag o the country was that of Tsar Ivan Shishman – a white flag with three red lions on a white shield. While the lion is still considered an important symbol of the country, the flag does not resemble the pre-Ottoman version in the least. It was changed after the Russo-Turkish war...
Although Croatia’s route to independence was incredibly long and lasted for more than three centuries, the nation chose its colors to unite under despite the state did not exist in official terms.

The flag’s symbolism is most commonly referred to in the r...
Not many people know that Latvia’s flag is one of the oldest European flags. It was first recorded to be used by the Latvian troops in a battle in 1279. The flag is a carmine sheet divided in the middle by a white stripe.

The case with the flag of Lithuania is, indeed, an interesting one. Historically, the red flag depicted a white knight charging on a horse (known as Vytis in Lithuanian and Pogoń in Polish) in its center.

Although Polish national colors have been in use for centuries (at least from the early 10thcentury), it was not until the end of the First World War that the Polish Sejm officially established the form of the Polish national flag. Initially, it would depict a white eagle on a red background. Hence the early form of the Polish flag would use both c...
The flag of Romania is the only one in this set comprising horizontal rather than vertical stripes. Originating from the colors used by the Romanian nobles, it was first described, and its symbolic meaning explained, in 1821.
