In French, the indefinite pronoun "on" is used, always with the third person singular of the verb.

Ici, on parle français = One speaks French here/ People speak French here/ We speak French here/ They speak French here.

On is also used frequently in informal French instead of nous.

Nous parlons français = On parle français.

The French flag has great symbolic value for the nation. It appeared during the French Revolution in 1789 to replace the blue and white flag of the monarchy. The new French flag combines white with blue and red (the colors of Paris).
