The colors of Luxembourg have been known since the Middle Ages. Count Henry V of Luxembourg was the first to use a white (silver) and blue striped coat of arms and banner bearing a red crowned lion in 1240. Through the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Luxembourg became a Grand Duchy and a member of the German Confederation, but was linked to the Netherlands by King Wilhelm I in a personal union. Luxembourg was considered a de facto province of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. During this time, the flag of the Netherlands was flown over Luxembourg, which - apart from color nuances - has the same appearance as the Luxembourg flag. However, this similarity is of a coincidental nature, because the origin of both flags goes back to different historical origins. Wilhelm I's rule over Luxembourg was harsh; the result was Luxembourg's participation in the Belgian Revolution in 1830. This was the year in which the flag of today's form appeared for the first time: in order to differentiate itself from the flag of the Netherlands, the blue was chosen to be lighter and finally fixed on June 12, 1845. The French Revolution may also have had an influence on the choice of the striped flag. The tricolor and the associated idea of freedom were a popular template for many national flags at the time.
