Question: What flag did the French use at the BAttle of Waterloo!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Aside from the regimental colours, overall the main flag would have been the "drapeau tricolore" or the French tricolour - although on the battlefield it would have been known as just "les couleurs"!.

It would have looked almost identical to the current French tricolour although the three coloured stripes would have been slightly darker and of equal length!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Blue White and Red three colored flag!.
