Brief introduction of French flag

The French flag is famous for its tricolor flag, which first appeared during the French Revolution. Its color is taken from the national emblem of France at that time (red and blue), and the color of the French royal family is white. Among them, blue is the color of Saint Martin's robe, white is to commemorate the national hero Joan of Arc, and red is the color of Saint Denis's flag.

The original tricolor flag color arrangement was different from today, and the left side was red, but it was later adjusted. February 1794, 15, the flag was finally determined to be the French flag.

When the Bourbon Dynasty was restored, the tricolor flag was abolished and replaced by the Royal Iris. However, after the July Revolution of 1830, the tricolor flag became the national flag of France again and continues to this day. The French national flag is one of the most important national flags in the world, which has an important influence on the development of national flags in later generations.
