The flag of Vojvodina is based on the Serb tricolour. It consists of three horizontal strands of red, blue and white with the blue portion being significantly wider.
The blue portion contains three yellow stars representing the three geographic regions of Vojvodina: Bačka, Banat and Srem. The flag of Vojvodina is adopted on 27 February 2004.
The three colors symbolize the connection of Vojvodina with Serbia, while the three stars are also symbolizing the connection with the European Union and the European orientation of Vojvodina.

Famous quotes containing the words flag of and/or flag:
“Swift blazing flag of the regiment,
Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.”
—Stephen Crane (1871–1900)
“Hath not the morning dawned with added light?
And shall not evening call another star
Out of the infinite regions of the night,
To mark this day in Heaven? At last, we are
A nation among nations; and the world
Shall soon behold in many a distant port
Another flag unfurled!”
—Henry Timrod (1828–1867)
