Coat of arms of Wallonia

The flag of Wallonia is used by the Walloon Region and French Community of Belgium. Designed between 1912 and 1913, it depicts a red "bold rooster" (coq hardi) on a yellow field. Originally associated with the Walloon Movement, the flag has subsequently become an apolitical symbol of regional identity. It has enjoyed official status since 1975.
