Is the flag a horizontal or a vertical tricolour?

The term "tricolor" typically refers to a flag that consists of three horizontal or vertical stripes. To determine if a specific flag is a horizontal or vertical tricolor, one must look at the orientation of its stripes. For example, the French flag is a vertical tricolor, while the Italian flag is a horizontal tricolor. If you have a specific flag in mind, please provide its name for a more accurate answer.
