335. What colors does the state flag of Brandenburg have?

Answer options

1. blue-white-red
2. red-white
3. green-white-red
4. black-yellow

Explanation

Brandenburg’s flag is composed of the state colors red and white; the historic red eagle appears on the official (service) flag. This symbolism traces back to the margraves of Brandenburg and the Brandenburg Eagle from the 12th/13th centuries. The colors and emblems are anchored in constitutional law (Art. 4 of the Constitution of the Land of Brandenburg) and specified by the statute on state symbols. They express the Land’s constitutional identity within the federal order established by the Basic Law.
