The French flag is based on a revolutionary cockade created during the French Revolution in 1789, after the fall of the Bastille. It takes the colours of red and blue, the colours of Paris (blue representing equality, and the need for the first two Estates to maintain their duty to the common people, or the Third Estate, as well as sharing the burden of taxes; red representing liberty, the colour of the bonnet rouge, a hat of liberty worn by revolutionaries).
