The design was conceived in 1955, and officially adopted later that year by the Council of Europe as a symbol for the whole of Europe.[6] The Council of Europe urged that it be adopted by other European organizations, and in 1985 the European Communities (EC) adopted it.

The EU also inherited the emblem's use when it was formed in 1993, being the successor organization to the EC starting from 1 December 2009 (date of entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty). It has been in wide official use by the EC since the 1990s, but it has never been given official status in any of the EU's treaties. Its adoption as an official symbol of the EU was planned as part of the proposed 2004 European Constitution, which failed to be ratified in 2005.

The flag is used by different European organizations as well as by unified European sporting teams under the name of Team Europe. Wikipedia
