Ireland Flag - National Symbol of the Republic of Ireland #3868658 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Ireland features three equal vertical stripes: green (representing Gaelic tradition and Irish Catholics), white (symbolizing peace and unity between communities), and orange (honoring William of Orange and Irish Protestants). First flown publicly during the 1916 Easter Rising, it became the official national flag of the Irish Free State in 1922 and remains a powerful emblem of Irish identity and sovereignty. The elegant green script “Ireland” beneath reinforces its national association.
