During the second half of the 19th century, historians debated which flag should be considered national: white-blue-red or black-yellow-white. The issue was officially resolved on April 28, 1883 (on May 7, 1883, this decision was included in the Collection of Legalizations of the Russian Empire), when Alexander III, who was inclined to Russophilism, ordered the use of an exclusively white-blue-red flag by the "Decree on flags for decorating buildings on solemn occasions".
These colors are also used in Pan-Slavic flags. It is believed that the flag of Russia was the prototype for many flags, the main national composition of which is the Slavic peoples. To the pan-Slavic flags are considered flags: the Slovakia flag, flag of Slovenia, Czech Republic flag, flag of Serbia, flag of Croatia.
The flag of Russia is included in the State Heraldic Register of the Russian Federation under number 2.
