Germany Logo History
The black-red-gold tricolour has roots in 19th-century German liberal and nationalist movements (visible from the 1848 revolutions). It was used as the national flag of the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and was re-adopted by the Federal Republic of Germany after World War II (1949); the same tricolour is used for the modern reunified Germany.
