Flag of Europe depicts five-pointed star
Multi-coloured: It was proposed that the flag could contain all the colours the flags of the member states had.
Green and White: These were the colours of the European Movement.
Blue: Symbol of peace and neutrality, as other colours were already used for other movements such as black for mourning, red for bolshevism, or green for Islam.In the end, the flag of Europe was chosen to have 12 five-pointed golden stars in a circle over a blue background, probably inspired by the Pan-European flag and other designs such as Salvador de Madariaga's and Arsène Heitz's proposals.
