I have worked as a sales professional for years offering flags of Europe and flag poles for sale. My background is Irish. I take a special interest in the flag of Ireland, obviously.
The Irish standard is a vertical tricolor that features the colors orange, white and green in its design. This national standard was first adopted in the year 1919 and hence flown from Irish and such flag poles for a while. Interestingly, this tri-color was adopted in the constitution some years later. The orange vertical stripe is located on the fly-end.
The idea of combining the colors arose when certain Irish folks were present at the French Revolution, but the flag did not become nationally popular until after the 1916 "Easter Rising," when it was one of several flags hoisted to Irish flagpoles in Dublin.
The meaning of this tri-color has yet to be defined by law. The national government has said that green symbolizes the so-called "Gaelic" tradition of the country. Orange symbolizes the Irish that followed a gentleman called William of Orange. White represents peace between the two colors.
Many that have traveled to Western Europe will likely have seen the Irish tri-color flown from smaller and taller Irish flag poles. This standard was flown during the Easter Rising that happened in the year 1916. Back in the day it very much caught the imagination of many as the tricolor that represented a "new country." It became more of a national standard in the then years following.
Standards will be treated in appropriately at times. To prevent inappropriate practices, flag protocol has come into existence in countries all over the world. It is considered perfectly normal practice to fly national standards during the day as well as the night from military flagpoles.
I have seen the national Irish tri-color flown from American and some European flag poles. If used in combination with other national flags, including the Star Spangled Banner, one is supposed to learn the flag etiquette guidelines, and what is considered appropriate when put on display together.
