However, if you are referring to the French National Flag, since
Paris is the capital of France, this is a vertical tricolor with
blue, white, and red as you move from left to right. The Parisian
city flag lacks the central white stripe and instead has the city
coat-of-arms placed on a field of two vertical stripes, one blue
and one red.

Asked in History of France, France
The meanings of the colors on the French flag?
White is the traditional color of French royalty, red and blue
are the traditional livery colors of paris, the country's capital
city. the color red is said to come from the flag of Saint-Denis,
first bishop of Paris and patron saint of the town.
The flag was adopted in 1794 and is one of the worlds oldest
flags. It was drawn by Jacques Louis David, famous French painter,
but it has its origins in July 1789. Shortly after the fall of the
Bastille, the king visiting the Paris town hall was handed a blue
and red cocard - the colours of the town - which he put on his hat
next to the white cocard (French royalty emblem at the time), as a
gesture towards the people of Paris. The white flag replaced the
three-colour flag in 1814-1815, and from 1815 to 1830, during the
two first periods when the monarchy was reinstated.
