WHo and where invented the white flag? Where does it come from? And the first time some one used it how did the opposite force knew that it meant what it meant?

White flag!

Spellbinder whats up? Congrats to 1111
I think the whiteflag is a statueationary of the Nations-Congress (Völkerbund?) like the red cross symbol which shows that a soldier is not to be harmed and not allowed to fight while wearing this

Ok lots of nice facts there! This is what i was after "The white flag is an internationally recognized protective sign of truce or ceasefire, and request for negotiation. It is also used to symbolise surrender" That white flag that is. The surrender flag. Also i was thinking about the Iraq war right now. Do they really know they can use a white flag? But i guess i got my answer since it seems to be a Arabic invention. One question left though.
