Flag of Slovakia

The current form of the flag of Slovakia was adopted by Slovakia's Constitution, which came into force on September 3, 1992. The flag, in common with other Slavic nations, uses the white, blue and red colours.
Slovakia's flag in its current form (but with another seal on it or without any seal) can be dated back to the revolutionary year 1848[citation needed] (see: The Revolutions of 1848 in the Habsburg areas). It was also used semi-officially in Czechoslovakia before World War II, by the Slovak Republic during WWII, and finally adopted (without the seal) on March 1, 1990 as the flag of the Slovak Republic within Czechoslovakia. The seal was added on September 3, 1992 and a special law describing the details of the flag followed in February 1993.
