Why Do All SLAVIC Countries Have Similar Flags?

In this video we will talk about Slavic Flags and how they are similar. Attempting to provide an historical context, we will explain how all of these flags share the red, white and blue colours with the pan-slavic flag created at the Congress of 1848, which was itself inspired in the Russian flag. The Russian flag was, in turn, influenced by the Dutch flag - due to Peter The Great's desire to turn Russia into a European Power, as well as his passion for all things Dutch due to his visits to the country.

After understanding who the Slavs are, which countries are considered Slavic, and which of these effectively use the slavic tricolor(s). Finally we will go through the 7 countries (Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia, Czechia, Bulgaria, and Russia) that do use them and look into when they were put into use, as well as how these colours often reflect not only the slavic heritage but also a connection to the banners and coats of arms of the local medieval predecessors.
