The Slovenian national flag, bearing the pan-Slav colours of the Russian and Slovak flags, was adopted by Slovenian patriots in 1848.In 1991 Slovenia's new coat of arms was added to the flag. It represents the Triglav, the highest peak in the Slovenian Alps. The three yellow stars against a blue background are from the arms of the former duchy of Celje. The small waves symbolise Slovenia's rivers and the Adriatic.
