Green represents the Gaelic and Catholic tradition, orange the Protestant supporters of William of Orange, and the white between them stands for lasting peace between the two.

How to spot it: Vertical green-white-orange with green at the hoist; Ivory Coast reverses it (orange at the hoist) and Italy has red instead of orange.
