tricolors

Flags with thirds

Tricolors is the plural of tricolor, a flag or design featuring three colors, typically in vertical or horizontal stripes.

The term most often refers to the French flag with its blue, white, and red bands, though many nations have tricolors: The Italian and Irish tricolors are often confused.

The word also describes animals with three-colored coats: a tricolor beagle.
