National symbols Since 1990 Hungary is an independent democratic state. The form of state is republic; the official name of the country is Hungarian Republic. The capital city of Hungary is Budapest. Flag: The national flag of Hungary is the tricolour with three horizontal stripes: red, white and green and the historical coat of arms. Red: symbolizes strength White: symbolizes faithfulness The Hungarian coat of arm and flag Green: symbolizes hope. The role model of the Hungarian flag was the French tricolour and became very popular during the revolution of 1848/49. Since 20 August 2000 the flag has to be used on official buildings. The Hungarian crown The Hungarian crown: The Hungarian crown was given to Saint Stephen, the first Hungarian king on the occasion of his coronation in 1001. It is the oldest crown in Europe. The national anthem: the lyrics of national anthem of Hungary were written by Ferenc Kölcsey and its music was composed by Ferenc Erkel in the 19th century. The anthem refers to the most important historical events of the country and is played at various events. The poem and song titled Szózat can be considered as a second national anthem of Hungary. The poem was written by Mihály Vörösmarty while Béni Egressy composed the music to it. Szózat is sung at the end of the various ceremonies. The Hungarian coat of arms: The national coat of arms consists of the crown of St. Stephen, the state-founder king and the silvers stripes are said to represent the four rivers (Duna, Tisza, Dráva and Száva) while the hills are said to represent the three mountains (Mátra, Tátra, Fátra) but this theory is not historically founded.
