Romania
Flag Description
three equal vertical bands of blue (hoist side), yellow, and red; modeled after the flag of France, the colors are those of the principalities of Walachia (red and yellow) and Moldavia (red and blue), which united in 1862 to form Romania; the national coat of arms that used to be centered in the yellow band has been removed
 
note: now similar to the flag of Chad, whose blue band is darker; also resembles the flags of Andorra and Moldova
