Spanish flag, also known as la Rojigualda, was adopted in 1978. The colors (red and yellow) came from the various Spanish kingdoms during the Middle Ages. The government version of this flag includes the coat of arms for the House of Bourbon, which features fleur de lies and a pomegranate. The scroll beneath the emblem reads Plus Ultra, of “Further Beyond.”

these Spanish flags are dyed on silky, lustrous rayon and hemmed and mounted to a black pole that includes a gold-painted spear. Each 4 in. x 6 in. flag is mounted to a 10 in. pole.

French flags: blue, white and red. Adopted in 1853, the French flag has a rich history. Blue, the color of St. Martin, and red, the color of St. Denis, are the traditional Paris colors. These colors were worn by the Paris militia during the storming of the Bastille. Red and blue are also associated with the Virgin Mary, France’s patron saint, and Charlemagne. Lafayette declared white the ancient color of France, creating the tricolor.
