Montenegro: its flag

Red bordered in gold, Montenegro’s 2004 flag revives the colours of the former kingdom of the House of Petrović-Njegoš, the dynasty that ruled the country until the 20th century.

The crowned golden double-headed eagle, inherited from Byzantine and Orthodox tradition, sits at its centre, with a lion on its shield.
