Flags of Russia |
||||||||||||||||||
Russia is a large country and spans from Europe to the Asia, therefore, it needs to be included in both the lists, though the continents differ, flag of Russia is the same that is used in Europe, the Russian flag was actually inspired from the flag of Netherlands.
The flag has three colors, horizontally placed, the three colors are the white, blue and red, placed in equal sized bands in similar order. These three colors have somehow been included by many Slavic countries in the region, though the colors did not depict much meaning the white color stood for frankness in speech and actions as well as generosity, the red color stood for most important thing called love and courage, whereas the blue color stands for loyalty and honesty. |

There is another interpretation of the flag, where red depicts Russians, white depicts Ukranians and the blue depicts Belo Russians. Though there are many who want a color change for the flag, the flag remains what it was originally accepted in 1991.
After the break up of Russia there are many countries that use the same colors in different combinations on their flag. Russia, is also a member of the United Nations. |
