Best Answer

Austria's flag is one of the oldest in the world, dating back to around 1200AD. Its colours are inspired by a legend of an Austrian king whose uniform was soaked with blood in battle, and only the area covered by his belt remained white. At various times in Austrian history, the present flag had added elements such as the shield of the Hapsburgs.
