The French national flag, the tricolore, consists of three vertical bands of equal width, displaying the national colors of France: blue, white and red. Red, white and blue have come to represent liberty, equality and fraternity - the ideals of the French Revolution. Blue and red are the time-honored colors of Paris, while white is the color of the Royal House of Bourbon.
