Red and White, red and white flag, as we all know that means a bold red white and held sacred by some countries. In this case you may not know who first used the red and white as the flag state. Here we will try to review. 

POLANDIA. 

The flag of Poland consists of two horizontal lines with the same width, the top white and red bottom. The two colors are defined in the Polish constitution as the national colors. 

Red white and was officially adopted as national colors in 1831. It was based on the tinctures (colors) typical of emblems two constituent nations of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, ie the White Eagle of Poland and the Pursuer of Lithuania, a white knight riding a white horse, complete with a red shield. Prior to that, Polish soldiers wore various color combinations. The national flag was officially adopted in 1919. Since 2004, Polish Flag Day is celebrated on May 2. 

MONACO. 

Monaco flag the original (same form with the state flag of Monaco but with a picture symbol of an earlier version in the middle) has been used since the beginning of this royal stand, except when-annexation Monaco in France in the period 1793-1814. The shape is now simpler into use since 4 April 1881. 

INDONESIA. 

The national flag of Indonesia, which is known as Sang Saka Merah Putih ("Red and White") was based on the flag of the Majapahit Empire in the 13th century in East Java. The flag itself was introduced and hoisted formally before the world on Indonesian Independence Day ceremony, dated August 17, 1945. The design of the flag has remained the same until now. 

The color comes from the red and white flag of the Majapahit Empire in the 13th century. Then, the colors were revived by students and nationalists in the early 20th century as an expression of nationalism against the Dutch. Red-white flag was hoisted for the first time in Java in 1928. Under the Dutch, the flag fluttering prohibited. This system was adopted as the national flag on August 17, 1945, when independence was declared and has been used since then. 

There is also another story about the flag of Indonesia, which is significantly associated with the Dutch flag. Under Dutch colonialism, every business uses the Dutch flag (red-white-blue). While the Indonesian flag banned. As a symbol of resistance against the Dutch, the Indonesian nationalists and independence movement tore the Dutch flag. They tore the bottom of the flag, and separate the red and white colors of the color blue. The main reason is because the blue in the Netherlands flag aristocracy understood as standing for "blue-blooded". In contrast, the red color represents the blood shed in the War of Independence, while white could be understood to symbolize purity Indonesia. 

Its official name is the Red and White in accordance with Article 35 of the 1945 Constitution. This flag is also commonly called the Red and White flag, the Dwiwarna, or the Red and White. Heritage Flag is a flag which is flown in front of Sukarno house moments after he proclaimed Indonesian independence on August 17, 1945. This heirloom flag was sewn by Mrs. Fatmawati Soekarno, and was hoisted every year in front of the presidential palace during the independence day ceremony. However, because it is considered too fragile, heirloom flag flown for the last time on August 17, 1968. 

Red means courage, while white means purity. The red is the human body or physical life, while white symbolizes the human soul or spiritual life. Together they stand for human complement. 

Traditionally, the majority of Indonesian people have used red and white as their sacred color, color mixing sugar (red color comes from palm sugar or palm sugar) and rice (white colored). To this day, both of which are major components of Indonesian dishes every day. Apparently, the population of the Majapahit Kingdom also used this concept and designed as a red and white flag. 

Conclusion 

Poland uses shades of white-red flag in 1831 

Monaco uses shades of red-white flag in 1339 (and even then the design is still changing) 

INDONESIA, using shades of red and white flag stood since the days of the Majapahit Kingdom in 1293!! 

INDONESIA is the FIRST to use the flag and never change the flag design. Despite frequent upheavals in the country, change the system of government, by the colonial imperialism, RED WHITE will still fly!! for ever. FREEDOM!!!!
