Greek Flag - National Symbol of Greece | High-Resolution Image #3562207 (License: Personal Use)

The Greek flag consists of nine equal horizontal stripes of blue and white, representing the nine syllables of the phrase “Ελευθερία ή Θάνατος” (Freedom or Death), and a blue canton bearing a white cross symbolizing Greek Orthodoxy. The deep blue evokes the Aegean Sea and sky, while white reflects purity and peace. This design has been official since 1978 and is deeply rooted in Greece’s War of Independence (1821-1830).
