“Peace and unity between Catholics and Protestants”

FLAG HISTORY
The green pale in the flag
symbolizes Irish republicanism
dating back to the Society of
United Irishmen in the 1790s.
The white in the center signifies a
lasting truce between the two cultures
and a living together in peace.
The orange represents the minority who
were supporters of King William III, who
was of the House of Orange and originally
the Stadtholder of the Netherlands, had
defeated King James II and his
predominantly Irish Catholic army at
the Battle of the Boyne in 1690.
