Answer:
The national flag of Ireland is a tricolor of green, white and orange. The three colors are of equal size, vertically disposed, and the green is displayed next to the staff.
The green represents the older Gaelic and Anglo-Norman element in the population, the orange represents the Protestant planter stock, supporters of William of Orange and the white in the centre signifies a lasting truce between the 'Orange' and the 'Green.'
