Netherlands Flag: The Tricolor of a Maritime Republic

The flag of the Netherlands, consisting of horizontal stripes of red, white, and blue, is one of the oldest tricolor flags still in use. It was officially adopted on February 19, 1937.

Originally orange, white, and blue in honor of William of Orange, the top stripe changed to red in the 17th century due to visibility and dye availability. Red stands for strength, white for peace, and blue for loyalty.

This flag has influenced many others around the world, particularly in former Dutch colonies. It is prominently displayed on King’s Day (April 27) and during royal and sporting events.
