The flag of Latvia features a distinctive dark red—sometimes called carmine or maroon—field divided by a narrow white horizontal stripe. One of the oldest flags in the world, it is mentioned in the Rhymed Chronicle of 1280, which describes a red banner with a white stripe used by Latvian tribes in battle. The dark red is unique among national flags and is said to represent the blood of a wounded Latvian chieftain, whose blood-soaked bedsheet—with a clean stripe where he had lain—was raised as a battle standard. Officially adopted in 1918 upon Latvian independence and suppressed during Soviet occupation, the flag was restored in 1990. Its unusual shade of red makes it instantly distinguishable, a color that belongs to Latvia alone. Ancient, blood-deep, and fiercely reclaimed, it's a flag with a legend as old as the nation.
