Flag toothpicks featuring the flag of Italy are an easy and fun way to welcome, support, celebrate, and honor Italy and Italians. The official flag of Italy is a tricolor flag featuring 3 equal vertical bands of green, white, and red with green on the hoist side. The red and white were borrowed from the Milanese flag with the green added to represent the Civic Guards of Milan in 1797. The current flag was adopted after World War II, in 1947. The colors are also interpreted by some to represent: green for hope and joy, white for peace and honesty, and red for strength and valor. It is also said the green stands for the plain and hill landscapes, white represents the snow-capped Alps, and red signifies the violent struggle to become independent.
