Meanin an oreegin o the colours
The three colours purportitly came frae the coat o airms o the Grand Duchy o Moscow, which depict Saunt George wearin white (siller) airmour, ridin a white horse, wearin a blue cape an hauldin a blue shield, on a reid field. Accordin tae anither version, thir three colours wur associatit wi the robes o the Virgin Mary, the holy protectress o Roushie.

Anither vera common interpretation is the association o colours wi the main pairts o the Roushie Empire: white sicweys represents Belaroushie ("White Roushie"), blue Ukraine (or Malorossia, "Little Roushie"), an re "Great Roushie".
