What do the colors of the Estonian flag mean?
A popular reading from the poet Martin Lipp is that blue stands for the sky above Estonians, black for attachment to the soil of the homeland and white for purity, hard work and commitment. The blue-black-white colours were first used by the Estonian Students' Society in 1881.
When was the Estonian flag adopted?
The tricolour became the national flag on 21 November 1918 by decision of the Provisional Government, and parliament confirmed it by law in 1922. It was banned under Soviet occupation from 1940. It was permitted again in October 1988 and officially re-adopted in August 1990.
