The National Flag of Andorra

The national flag of the Principality of Andorra was adopted in 1866. The flag is a vertical tricolor of blue, yellow, and red with the coat of arms of Andorra in the center. Although the three vertical bars may at first appear to be of equal width, the center yellow bar is slightly wider than the other two so that the ratio of bar widths is 8:9:8.

The flags of Chad and Romania are also vertical tricolors of blue, yellow, and red.

The flag of Andorra is based on the flags of France and Spain, the two states that protect the independence of the small state. The design of vertical bars is taken from the French Tricolore, as is the blue and red. Yellow and red are taken from the Spanish and Catalan flags; from 1806 to 1866, Andorra's flag had been a horizontal bicolor of yellow and red. The motto in the coat of arms in the middle stripe Virtus Unita Fortior means "Strength United is Stronger". (Wikipedia)
