Germany Flag - Official National Flag of the Federal Republic of Germany #1260379 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Germany consists of three horizontal stripes of equal width: black on top, red in the middle, and gold (often depicted as yellow) at the bottom. It was officially reinstated in 1949 for the Federal Republic of Germany and reflects the colors of the 19th-century liberal movement for unity and freedom. The design is simple yet deeply symbolic, rooted in the historical Frankfurt Parliament of 1848.
