Best Answer

The colors of the Italian flag do not actually represent anything. The colors were chosen because red and white were the colors of Milan's flag and green was the color of Milanese civic guard's uniform.

Despite this, there are two common beliefs to what the colors represent:

Green - Hills and plains of the country

White - Snow on the Alps

Red - Blood spilt in the Italian Wars of Independence

Green - Hope

White - Faith

Red - Charity
