Austria: about the flag
One of the oldest national flags in the world, Austria's red-white-red bands are said to date back to a crusade in 1191. According to the story, Duke Leopold V's white tunic was soaked in blood during battle, except where his belt had been. The clean stripe became the emblem.
The design was officially adopted in 1786 and kept when the First Republic was founded in 1918. The colors have no official meaning today, though red and white have long been associated with the Babenberg dynasty. The state flag includes the federal eagle, while the plain version is used by ordinary citizens.
Austria reintroduced the flag on 1 May 1945, when the Nazi occupation ended. The plain tricolor is one of the few national flags that can be flown without any emblem.
