National Flag Day in Romania: History
National Flag Day in Romania was established in 1998. As per the Constitution of Romania, “the flag of Romania is tricolor; the colors are arranged vertically in the following order from the flagpole: blue, yellow, red.” Law no. 75 of July 16, 1994, published in Monitorul Oficial no. 237 of August 26, 1994, explicitly accommodates flag colors, proportions, protocols, and specific shades, which are cobalt blue, chrome yellow, and vermillion red.
The history of Romania’s national flag can be followed back to 1821, during the Wallachian uprising when every one of the three colors was featured on the canvas of the revolutionary flag. Notwithstanding, it was only after 1834 that the tricolor was taken on in Wallachia — a historical former independent principality in Romania — by dominator Alexandru II Ghica, who submitted designs for its endorsement by Sultan Mahmud II.
As of now, the flag was red, blue, and yellow, with stars and a bird’s face in the center. Yet again in 1848, the revolutionaries took on a blue, yellow, and red even tricolor for Wallachia. Each color had a significance credited to it: sky blue representing liberty, field yellow symbolizing justice, and blood-red symbolizing fraternity.
Somewhere in the range between 1859 and 1866, the United Principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia utilized the red, yellow, and blue level tricolor. Notwithstanding, in 1867, the flag was changed; the colors were organized vertically and the country’s coat of arms was set in the middle.
At the point when Romania declared a socialist people’s republic on December 30, 1947, kingdom symbols were outlawed, and the coat of arms was supplanted with the country’s emblem. In 1989, Decree-Law no. 2 of December 27, 1989, gave that “the national flag is the traditional tricolor of Romania, with the colors laid out vertically, in the following order, starting from the flagpole: blue, yellow, red.”
The Flag of Romania

Both principalities flew flags derived from ancient banners- Moldavia’s flag was blue and featured an ox head, while Walachia’s was yellow with an eagle. Walachia likewise utilized a naval ensign that featured every one of the three colors flown all through the country today. The principal rendition of the advanced Romanian flag showed up in 1848 and the nation officially took on the current design in 1989.
