Il-bandiera Ewropea

Fuq l-isfond ta' sema ikħal, l-istilel jiffurmaw ċirku, li jissimbolizza l-unjoni. In-numru ta' stilel huwa fiss, u tnax huwa s-simbolu tal-perfezzjoni u l-kompletezza u jfakkruna fl-appostli, f’ulied Ġakobb, fl-isfidi ta’ Erkole, fix-xhur fis-sena, eċċ

Sa mit-twaqqif tiegħu fl-1949 il-Kunsill tal-Ewropa kien konxju tal-ħtieġa li l-Ewropa jkollha simbolu li miegħu iċ-ċittadini tagħha setgħu jidentifikaw. Fil-25 ta’ Ottubru, 1955, l-Assemblea Parlamentari unanimament approvat l-emblema ta' ċirku ta' stilel tad-deheb fuq sfond ikħal. Fid-9 ta’ Diċembru, 1955, il-Kumitat tal-Ministri tal-organizzazzjoni addotta l-bandiera tal-istilel, li tnediet uffiċjalment fit-13 ta' Diċembru tal-istess sena f'Pariġi.

Simbolu għall-Ewropa kollha

Fl-1983 il-Parlament Ewropew min-naha tiegħu adotta l-bandiera mfassla mill-Kunsill tal-Ewropa u għaldaqstant irrakkomanda li ssir l-emblema tal-Komunitajiet Ewropej. Il-Kunsill Ewropew ta l-approvazzjoni tiegħu f'Ġunju 1985. L-istituzzjonijiet tal-Unjoni Ewropea bdew jużaw il-bandiera fl-1986.

Minn dakinhar il-bandiera Ewropea saret sinonimu ma' proġett politiku komuni, li jgħaqqad l-Ewropej kollha, lil hinn mid-diversità tagħhom.
