Austrian flag - red and white

Triband in red, white and red

,Red and white - according to Austrian tradition the flag was invented by Leopold V on a crusade

At the end of a difficult battle (probably the siege of Acre) the king took off his blood-stained coat and 

saw under his belt that the coat remained

.Bloodless

Another belief is that the flag was awarded to King Leopold V at the end of that battle by the emperor 

of the Holy Roman Empire

.Heinrich VI
