The Tricolour. Le Tricolore. The French Flag. Today I want to take a look at the long history of the French Flag, from the Early Medieval Oriflamme, to the iconic fleur-de-lis, initially on their blue background and later also the royalist white before the great switch to the infamous tricolour known today.
