Italian Flag - Symbol of Italy’s Heritage and National Identity #3541668 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Italy consists of three equal vertical bands of green, white, and red, adopted as the national flag on June 19, 1946, following the abolition of the monarchy. Its design traces back to the Cisalpine Republic in 1797, inspired by the French tricolor but with Italian symbolism. The colors represent hope (green), faith (white), and charity (red), reflecting both revolutionary ideals and Catholic tradition.
