The birth of the French flag
The blue-white-red tricolor flag (drapeau tricolore), the symbol of the French Fifth Republic, originated during the French Revolution (Révolution fran aise). The blue and red represent Paris, while the white represents the royal family (roi) and monarchie. When it comes to the tricolor, one person has to be mentioned, the Marquis de Lafayette, a French politician and military strategist of the 18th and 19th centuries, and a prominent representative of the monarchie constitutionnelle during the French Revolution. Legend has it that Louis XVI received the Cocarde Tricolore from Lafayette three days after the capture of the Bastille. Since then, the tricolor has become a symbol of patriotism and blossomed among the people. 
The picture shows a tricolor flower, symbolizing the revolution, which was widely worn during the French Revolution In the autumn of 1790, the French Constituent Assembly decided to all **, and military ships hung longitudinal tricolor flags. At that time, the order of the colors of the tricolor was the opposite of that of the current French flag (Rouge près de la hampe, blanc au centre, bande plus large que les autres, bleu à l'extérieur). On February 15, 1794, the Convention Nationale finalized the tricolor in the longitudinal blue-white-red color (blue near the flagpole and red outside). At the same time, the tricolor was given a new symbolic meaning: blue for liberté, white for equality (égalité) and red for fraternité. The French flag changed colors
It's not so much about changing the color, it's about changing back to the original color. Without any official announcement, the Élysée quietly hoisted a "new" tricolor, and it was Emmanuel Macron, then of France, who made the decision. Instead of following the 1976 Bleu Cobalt flag adopted by Giscard d'Estaing, the third emperor of the French Fifth Republic, Macron switched back to Bleu Marine, aiming to restore France's former glory.
