Dutch Flag Doesn't Have Orange

We fully understand that many people voted for the Black Silver Fern design on the back of a wave of patriotism after the All Blacks successful defence of the Rugby World Cup, but there is no sound reason why a country's national colour should be represented on their flag. Take for example the Netherlands who have the oldest red, white and blue national flag in the world. Like us they have a single national colour (orange) of which they're intensely proud.
