The Polish national flag is built up from 2
horizontal belts: red
(amarant) below and white above. These colors are connected
with the color of the
White Eagle used on the red crest. The upper belt is the color
of the
Eagle, and the lower - the color of crest. The right
proportions of the flag are 5:8 (height:width). The process
whereby those colors became the national flag was quite
complicated and gradual. For example, some medieval rule
said, that if the White Eagle is put on the red crest, then
the colors
of flag are optional. Nevertheless, red-white colors
occurred on the
national flags from XVII-XIX cent. very often, but the
location of colors was unstable. Sometimes it was red above
and white below. This situation was resolved on 1st August
1919. Since that time the flag has been not changed
except for the White Eagle. The communists took off the crown
from the eagle. It returned in 1989.
Each flag shown is
the flag used by that
nation's government and displayed at the U.N.
headquarters. Where noted the "civil" flag is also
available. It is identical to the "government" flag except
the seal is omitted.
Flags for Outdoor use are made of 100% heavyweight
nylon and finished with strong canvas headings and brass
grommets.
