Description

Russia Flag

White, blue and red: the Russian flag

The Russian flag is a tricolour of horizontal bands, white, blue and red. Its simplest name is exactly that, «Tricolour», and its story begins at sea, more than three centuries ago.

A ship, in 1667

The first records date from 1667, in the time of Tsar Alexis: for the ship «Oryol», the Eagle, white, blue and red fabrics were ordered to make its flags. What that flag really looked like, however, nobody knows for certain: no reliable description has survived.

Peter the Great

In August 1693 Peter the Great sailed the White Sea on the yacht «Saint Peter» under a white, blue and red flag bearing the golden double-headed eagle: it is the oldest surviving Russian tricolour, kept at the Central Naval Museum. In 1705 one of his decrees set the flag of merchant ships, which is thought to have been the tricolour.

From a flag of the sea to a national flag

In 1858 Emperor Alexander II adopted a black, yellow and white flag. But in 1883 Alexander III ordered that on solemn occasions buildings be decorated with the white, blue and red flag, and in 1896 Nicholas II confirmed it as the national flag.

The return of the tricolour

In the Soviet era the flag was red. In August 1991 the tricolour became the flag of Russia again, a decree of 11 December 1993 set today's design and on 25 December 2000 a federal constitutional law established its status. There is no official interpretation of its colours.
