#EuropeDay

Which flag best symbolises Europe's unity?

Many ideas were submitted to the Council of Europe in the 1950s, but the 🇪🇺 EU flag was unanimously adopted on 8 December 1955.

Seven decades on, the flag embodies the values of unity, solidarity, diversity and harmony and is the most recognisable symbol of our European identity.

@EU_Commission there's a star missing on the last image. Is it a wanted choice, or is it an error?

@EU_Commission lol, Arsène Heitz really wanted to shove the French flag in there. Would have been horrible. Especially from a design perspective, flags inside of flags are a nogo... (apart from the French being too French about l'union européenne....)

Quelle est la description littérale vexillologique ?

@EU_Commission Como bandera de la UE no sirve (y quedaría regular con la estrella de Moscú allí), pero deberíamos recuperar una versión con Kiyv y Chişinău + los Balcanes del diseño de Salvador de Madariaga para europropaganda.
