Meaning/Origin of the Flag

The flag of Friuli Venezia Giulia is a single-coloured light blue flag and shows in the middle a flying up golden eagle perching on a rock. The eagle goes back to the Patriarchate of Aquileia, an ecclesiastical state that existed in this region between 1000 and 1420. The flag image is simplified, by placing a golden stripe in the middle of a blue flag.
