I've always thought the flag looked strange with black at the top.

> from YT video description: (Turn on C.C. with translation) The original flag of the German people was Gold, Red and Black, and not that which we see today, Black, Red and Gold. On 27 May 1832 there was an illegal gathering at Hambach Castle, in the Rhineland-Palatinate. About 30,000 people attended this event, which was the most impressive demonstration for Freedom, Democracy and National Unity of its time: The Hambach Festival. This period of German history had been characterized by Political Despotism, Censorship, Social Misery. But one of the major causes of political repression and economic hardship was the national disunity of Germany, which had broken up at that time into 39 states. These divisions were fomented by external enemies. In February of 1832, the `German Press and Fatherland Club` was founded. Its main goal was the rebirth of Germany within a free Europe. Members of the association included the organizers of the Hambach Festival. They were deemed as radicals or reactionaries. The 'powers that be' fought hard to cancel the event and they even issued a ban on the 8th of May. The organizers, however, persevered. And finally, in spite of the ban, the event took place. Among the invited guests in attendance at the festival were Polish freedom fighters, as well as a delegation from France, which had promised the Germans their full support in the creation of a new, unified, and independent nation state of Germany.

>The Hambacher Fest's opening speaker was Ph.J. Siebenpfeiffer, who was one of the organizers, and he closed his speech by saying"
>"Long live free, unified Germany!
>live well, the Poles, the Germans allies!
>Long live the French, our German brothers,
>who recognize our nationality and honor independence!
>Long live every nation that breaks its chains
>and swears with us, this Covenant of Freedom!
>Long live the Fatherland, the Sovereignty of the People, and the Solidarity of the People"
>The participants of Hambacher Festival demanded above all else, the Germany Unity, Rights, and Democratic Reforms. From this demonstration, the "Hambacher Lied", the song of the Germans, was born: an oath to our Unity, Rights and Freedom.
>SONG:
>Black for the grief of eternal night,
>It surrounds us on all sides.
>As long as we are under those princely powers,
>Our life of slavery continues.
>Red, for the dark glow which
>All around he wishes to ignite.
>And erect a throne from the rubble
>built with noble courage,
>For the freedom to build our new empire.
>Gold is of the Holy Light of Truth
>Which all around we want to spread,
>Where evil powers tell no more lies,
>With which to buy themselves time.

They unironically need to start using this flag again when the current political system is thrown out and a new one takes its place.
