Facts about the flag of Greece
Date adopted: 22 December 1978
Symbolism: The nine stripes represent the syllables of the phrase 'Ελευθερία ή Θάνατος' (Freedom or Death). The blue and white colors symbolize the sea and sky of Greece, and the cross represents Greek Orthodoxy.
- Pantone colours: Blue 300, White
- Aspect ratio: 2 : 3
- Hanging protocol: The flag is typically hung with the blue and white stripes horizontal, with the blue canton (with the white cross) at the top-left corner.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is to hang the flag with the stripes vertical or to place the canton on the wrong side.
