 Russia
This document governs that «National Flag is a rectangular banner, which consists of three equal horizontal stripes: the top one is white, the middle one is blue, the bottom one is red.
Russian national flags normally used in Russia range from the lightest to the darkest shade (like from argentine blue to british blue), even if in russian light blue is considered a separate color.
It is to remember that the Dutch ensign, created 1572, was the first marittime flag in the shape of three horizontal stripes, and since then, it got great popularity.

The Czechoslovak State Flag is a white-red field with the red colour in the bottom, which is in fact the Czech Flag and a blue threeangle, which had been added as the Slovak part of the complete flag.
The choice of blue meant that the colors of the flag were now red-white-blue, which in the nineteenth century were considered "traditional Slavic" colors and had been adopted by most pan-Slavic oriented movements (including the Czech Sokol movement) during that time.
The first Czechoslovakian flag (1918-1920) was identical to the Polish one as these are the colors of Bohemia.

 Krzysztof Kieslowski
The use of blue imagery in the film is, paradoxically, the most elemental and most abstract of the colors in the trilogy.
Indeed, blue is the color associated with grief.
Red is the color of love and blood - life and death.

The students chose the three colors based on geographic and historical elements of the Commonwealth, picking cranberry because the state is a large producer of cranberries, blue to represent the color of Revolutionary War uniforms and the waters of Massachusetts Bay and green to symbolize the Mohawk Trail and the forests of the Berkshire Hills.
Mitt Romney, surrounded by former students of the Elm Street School in Gardner, Mass., Tuesday signed legislation making cranberry, blue and green the official colors of the Commonwealth.
The legislation was sponsored by Judith Marceau's former third-grade students who worked with their local legislator, Rep. Brian Knuuttila (D-Gardner), to file a bill designating the state's official colors.

Three Colors Trilogy (Blue/ White/ Red) (1993)
Although told as three separate stories "Blue", "White" and "Red" (the order in which they should be watched), you will find a connection of life and happenstance relating to the main characters of each story.
Created by Kieslowski and his writing partner Krzysztof Piesiewicz for France's bicentennial, the titles--and the themes of the films--come from the three colors of the French flag representing liberty, equality, and fraternity.

 DVDFILE.COM: Three Colors review
Ever fond of working with grand themes (his Dekalog was a series of short films based on the 10 Commandments), Kieslowski's titles for the three movies (Blue, White, and Red) are meant to stand for the three colors of the French flag, representing Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity.
I can tell you right now, every single shot in the movie contains the color blue.
As great a supporter of foreign, independent, and art-house cinema as I am, and as much as I have praised (perhaps even overpraised) in the past movies that many viewers might label "pretentious," I have always found Polish director Krzysztof Kieslowski's famed Three Colors Trilogy to be an overrated, self-indulgent bore.

 Encyclopedia: Three Colors: Blue
Co-written, produced, and directed by Krzysztof Kieślowski, Blue is the first in the Three Colors trilogy, followed by White and Red.
Like the other films in the trilogy, Blue makes frequent visual allusions to its title: in addition to blue filters and blue lighting, many small, inconspicuous objects are blue.
In one scene, children dressed in white bathing suits with red floaters jump into the blue swimming pool while in another, Julie is seen accidentally entering a courtroom where the main Polish character of White is pleading his innocence.

 Color Presentation of Astronomical Images
There is no urgent need to use the three colors red, green, and blue in a composite similar to the human eyes technique.
The term "false colors" is also used quite often for such representative three color images, whereas I think this is somewhat misleading, because the shown RGB-colors do visualize the physical colors within the used wavelength bands.
The sensitivity curves of these layers approximate those of the human eyes three color receptors and so show natural colors.

 Demystifying Three Colors: Red
"Blue" may have been about the false goal of liberty "White" may have been about the false goal of equality, but if all three films are examined as a whole, the common unifying element is love.
It is the warmest of all three films, and indeed this also stems from the main theme of the colour red of the French flag-- fraternity (or friendship).
"Red" is the triumphant conclusion to Kieslowski's "Three Colours Trilogy", a point of convergence for the three sets of characters in the series.

 Encyclopedia article on Three Colors: White [EncycloZine]
Like Blue, the film makes frequent use of its title color to convey a mood, alternately hopeful (clarity, innocence, ecstasy) and bleak (snow, stone, and the pigeon droppings that rain on Karol early in the film).
As with the rest of Three Colors, White contains numerous images that at first appear unconnected but are revealed to be flashbacks, flash-forwards, or references to other films in the trilogy.
This film illustrates the second theme of the Three Colors trilogy, equality, through the two desires of the protagonist Karol Karol: improving his station in life, and getting even—i.e., revenge.

If you want your cornbread to be a little more vibrant, try adding 6 or 7 drops of red or blue food coloring.
To have all three colors, you will have to make three batches, each with a different color cornmeal.
*You'll get the best red color from red cornmeal, but if you can't find it (it's the toughest to locate), color a batch of white cornbread with annatto powder or achiote paste.

 Review: Three Colors: Blue
In addition to blue filters and blue lighting, any number of objects are blue- a foil balloon, a tinted window, awnings, a folder, the walls of a room, coats, skirts, scarves, blouses, jeans, shirts, trash bags, crystals, a lollypop and its wrapper, binders, graffiti, a pool, a van, and a pen.
Blue, the first of Krzysztof Kieslowski's "colors" trilogy( White and Red have recently been completed, marking the director's farewell to the industry, as he has announced his retirement), is a powerful motion picture - both in terms of its dramatic impact and in its method of presentation.
Kieslowski uses light and shadow like a painter uses his pallet, and even some of the most simple images - such as a sugar cube absorbing coffee - are memorable.

 Amazon.com: DVD: Blue (Three Colors Trilogy) (1994)
Of course, the color blue appears throughout the screen at various times and in several clever ways, but the real gem of the film in keeping in true "Kubrick-esque" style is the score.
Although "Red" remains my favorite installment in the Three Colors trilogy, "Blue" is wonderful as well.
The manner in which the color blue is used to bring mood and atmosphere to the film is also impressive.

 THREE COLORS: RED
The director's newest film, Red, the culmination of his Three Colors trilogy which also includes Blue and White, they insist, is overblown claptrap, substituting notions of Fate and Destiny for credible filmmaking.
The culmination of his masterful Three Colors trilogy suggests there is Something Larger than Kieslowski's characters.
The concluding scenes of Red, which may represent the conclusion of the director's career, tie the three films of the trilogy together so perfectly and unexpectedly that their themes resonate in a viewer's head for days afterward.

 Review: Three Colors: Red
Through one brief-but-important scene, this movie adds closure to both Blue and White, tying both to each other and to Red, and thereby reinforcing the commonality of ideas threaded through all three.
It is this moment, more than any other, that crystalizes everything that the Three Colors trilogy is attempting to convey about life and destiny.
With its satisfying exploration of such complex and diverse themes as destiny and platonic love, Red is not only a self-contained motion picture, but a fitting conclusion to the series.

However, in 1782, the Congress of the Confederation chose these same colors for the Great Seal of the United States and listed their meaning as follows: white to mean purity and innocence, red for valor and hardiness, and blue for vigilance, perseverance, and justice.
According to legend, George Washington interpreted the elements of the flag this way: the stars were taken from the sky, the red from the British colors, and the white stripes signified the secession from the home country.
House numbers on her street between the years 1785 and 1857 were registered using three different numbering systems, making the determination very tricky.

The colors of red, white and blue have been emerging on graves in cemeteries in Dodge and Jefferson counties as a visual reminder of veterans and the sacrifices they made to keep this country free.
The flags highlight old graves as well as an ever-increasing number of new graves marking the remains of veterans who fought for their country in various wars.

 Blue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blue is one of the three primary additive colors; blue light has the shortest wavelength range (about 420-490 nanometers) of the three primary colors.
Blue is used also as a word to denote a sad or melancholy state, as in depression (however, the phrase "blue skies," referring to sunny weather, implies cheerfulness).
Blue is associated with many air forces and navies because of the color of their dress uniforms, while green is associated with armies.
