Hey, it's Troy O'Sullivan here to talk about the Irish flag. The Irish flag is commonly known as the Irish Tricolour. Green represents the old Ireland, orange represents the new Ireland, and white represents brotherhood. In April of 1848, a young Irish leader brought the tricolour to Ireland from Paris. The flag was hardly used from 1848-1916. However, in 1937 it was officially named the flag of Ireland.
Is there like a certain symbol for each color??? I would like to here a little more about the history of the flag.
