Latvia: about the flag
Latvia's flag is one of the oldest in the world, mentioned in a 13th-century chronicle. The crimson-red band with a white stripe through the middle was carried by Latvian warriors long before it became a national symbol.
The red is a deep carmine, a shade unique enough that the government had to define it in 1922 to avoid confusion with Austria's flag. The white stripe is said to represent a sheet in which a wounded Latvian chief was wrapped, though that story is legend rather than fact. The colors also appeared on the first flag of the National Song and Dance Festival.
The flag was adopted on 15 June 1921. It was banned during the Soviet occupation and re-adopted on 27 February 1990, as independence was restored.
