Ireland | Irish Flag Toothpicks (100)

Flag toothpicks featuring the flag of the Ireland are an easy and fun way to welcome, support, celebrate, and honor Ireland, the Irish, and St Patrick's Day.  The national flag of the Republic of Ireland is also referred to as the "Tricolour" and features 3 equal vertical bands of green, white, and orange with green on the hoist side.  

As symbolic of the political climate today as it was when it was first flown in 1848, the orange represents the Northern Irish Protestants chosen for the followers of William of Orange.  Green is representative of the Irish Catholic Nationalists of the south and signifies revolution.  The white in the middle stands for a lasting truce between the "Green" & "Orange".
