Indonesia, Poland & Monaco, whichever is red and white first

                                                         
1. Poland

Poland The Polish Flag is made up of two horizontal lines of equal width, white top and bottom of red. The two colors are defined in the Polish constitution as the national color.  White and red were officially adopted as national colors in 1831. It was based on a typical tincture of the symbols of the two Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth constituent nations, the White Hawk of Poland and The Pursuer of Lithuania, a white knight riding a horse white complete with red shield. Before that, the Polish army used a combination of various colors. The national flag was officially adopted in 1919. Since 2004, Polish Flag Day is celebrated on May 2nd. 

 2. Monaco

Monaco The national flag of Monaco consists of two equal, red (top) and white (bottom) horizontal strips. The Red and White colors have been a distinctive feature of The House of Grimaldi since at least 1339, but with a fluctuating design .. The two-colored design was adopted on April 4, 1881, under the leadership of Prince Charles III.

The original Monaco flag (the same shape as the Monaco State flag but with the image of the previous version of the state symbol in its center) has been used since the beginning of this kingdom, except when Monaco annexed France in the period 1793-1814. The simpler form now began to be used since April 4, 1881

 3.Indonesia

Indonesia The national flag of Indonesia, known as Sang Saka Merah Putih ("Merah Putih") is based on the flag of the Majapahit Kingdom in the 13th century in East Java. The flag itself was introduced and officially flown to the world at the Indonesian Independence Day ceremony on August 17, 1945. The design of the flag remains the same today.











The red and white color comes from the flag of Majapahit Kingdom in the 13th century. Later, the colors were revived by students and nationalists in the early 20th century as an expression of nationalism against the Dutch. The red and white flag was flown for the first time in Java in 1928. Under Dutch rule, the flag was banned. The system was adopted as a national flag on August 17, 1945, when independence was declared and has been in use since then.







The official name is the Red and White in accordance with Article 35 of the 1945 Constitution. This flag is also commonly called the Red and White Flag, the Dwiwarna, or the Saka Merah Putih. Flag of Pusaka is a flag flown in front of Soekarno's house shortly after he proclaimed Indonesian independence on August 17, 1945. The flag of this Heritage is sewn by Mother Fatmawati Soekarno, and is flown every year in front of the presidential palace during the Independence Day ceremony. However, because it was considered too fragile, Flag of Heritage was raised for the last time on August 17, 1968.







Red means courage, while white means purity. The red is the human body or physical life, while the white symbolizes the human soul or spiritual life. Together they stand to equip the human.











Traditionally, most Indonesians have used red and white as their sacred color, mixing the color of sugar (red color derived from palm sugar or Palm Sugar) and rice (white). To this day, both are the main components of Indonesian cuisine every day. Apparently, the residents of Majapahit Kingdom also used this concept and designed it as a red and white flag.







Note: Majapahit Kingdom was founded in 1293
