Flag of Yugoslavia Postcard

The flag of Yugoslavia consisted of three equal horizontal bands coloured in pan-Slavic colours, blue (top), white and red, with a yellow-bordered red star at the flag's centre. During the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the national flag was a plain tricolor. The last Yugoslav national flag, used 1945-1992, was adopted during World War II as a modification of the flag that represented the wartime Yugoslav state (used 1943-1945) and was used by the resistance, the Partisans. The changes mostly affected the red star in the centre: it was enlarged, its shape was changed, and its borders were outlined in yellow.
