Germany: about the flag
Germany's black-red-gold was born in the wars against Napoleon. In 1813, volunteer corps, most famously Major Lutzow's Free Corps, wore black coats with red trim and gold buttons, and students at the Wartburg festival of 1817 raised the three colors as the banner of a free and united Germany.
The 1848 revolution made the tricolor the flag of German democracy, and the Frankfurt Parliament met beneath it. After 1871 the empire chose black-white-red instead; the Weimar Republic brought black-red-gold back in 1919. The Nazis banned it, and 1945 brought it home for good: the Federal Republic adopted it on 23 May 1949, with East Germany adding its own emblem until 1990.
Germans fly it with particular ease since reunification, especially during football World Cups, when the flag, once bitterly contested, streams from every other car window.
