De când e tricolorul drapelul național al României? Cele trei culori apar și în acte emise de Mihai Viteazul • Newsweek România

The Romanian tricolor, representing freedom, justice, and brotherhood, has a rich history dating back to Mihai Viteazul. It was first used as a national flag in 1834 and officially adopted by Alexandru Ioan Cuza in 1861. The flag's design has evolved, with significant changes occurring after the 1848 revolution and during the reign of King Carol I. Following the fall of communism in 1989, the flag returned to its pre-1947 form. National Flag Day is celebrated annually on June 26.
