The green represents forests, white represents the shore (of the Livonian coast) and blue represents the ocean. These represent Livonian fishing culture, and the colors symbolize the view of a fisherman when he looks to the coast. The flag was first used by the Livonian Society (Līvõd Īt) on November 18, 1923.
