It is said that the colours derive from the clothes the Dutch King William I wore, however, the colours are also said to be symbolical.
The Dutch flag has three stripes: red, white and blue. This used to be orange, white and blue.
- Orange means power and justice;
- White is a neutral colour, The Netherlands being neutral in politics and religion, and was the colour of the "highest authority".
- Blue represents the people, their work and their economical function within society.
Why the orange changed into red is quite unclear.
