The flag of Serbia and Montenegro was originally adopted on 27 April 1992 as the flag of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FR Yugoslavia) and was used as such from 1992 to 2006. After the country was renamed to the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro in February 2003 it remained in use as the national flag until the country's dissolution in June 2006.[5]
Aside from a different aspect ratio, it is essentially the same flag as the one once used by the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1918–1941). The tricolor without a red star in the centre was inherited from the flag of its direct predecessor state, the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1943–1992). It was similar to an inverted Dutch flag.[6]
