LOCATION

FLAG HISTORY

“Peace and unity between Catholics and Protestants”

The green pale in the flag

symbolizes Irish republicanism

dating back to the Society of

United Irishmen in the 1790s.

The white in the center signifies a

lasting truce between the two cultures

and a living together in peace.

The orange represents the minority who

were supporters of King William III, who

was of the House of Orange and originally

the Stadtholder of the Netherlands, had

defeated King James II and his

predominantly Irish Catholic army at

the Battle of the Boyne in 1690.
