Until 1918, the flag of Montenegro looks like a classic red-white-blue tricolor, which was located in the center of the national emblem. During the German occupation of the country in Montenegro army used military flag adopted until 1918, on a red field, which depicts an eagle and a lion.

Socialist Montenegro as a part of Yugoslavia again received as an official symbol of the tricolor, which caught fire on the red five-pointed star. At independence, Montenegro has chosen as a flag in 1993 tricolor with red, blue and white horizontal stripes. Then the policy of separation of Montenegro from Yugoslavia led to the fact that the leader of the country Djukanovic decided to change and official paraphernalia. Old flag served as a reminder of the union with Serbia, and therefore approved a new in 2004.

After World War I, free Montenegro alongside a few other Balkan nations turned out to be a piece of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes and had no banner of its own. Yugoslavia was disintegrated by the Axis powers amid World War II; Montenegro, ostensibly free, was possessed by Italy and again flew the red-blue-white tricolor from July 1941 to November 1943.

One of the state symbols of the country, the flag of Montenegro, together with the anthem and the coat of arms was approved after the formation of a sovereign state. His field is made red, the entire perimeter is a gold rim. In the center of Montenegro's flag, a country coat is applied.

On July 13, 2004, Montenegro adopted a distinctive flag. Based on an old royal banner, the new flag of Montenegro was red bordered with yellow. At its center was a yellow double-headed eagle displaying a shield with a lionâ€"the dynastic arms of the NjegoÅ¡ dynasty that once ruled Montenegro.

In 2006 a mainstream submission in Montenegro supported its severance from the alliance, and freedom was broadcasted on June 3; the banner of 2004 turned into Montenegro's national banner on that day. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Montenegro Flag for the future.
