3:52 no, this is not where the colours come from. During the liberation wars 1813-1815 against France there was a volunteer force called Lützowsches Freikorps (Lützow Free Corps) as a part of the Prussian army. Their uniforms were black with red details and golden (technically brass) buttons. Some of the soldiers adopted the colours in the following years as a symol for a then potential unified Germany.
3:27 "Norway with their boat, where is their oil at?" - Drew Durnil That actually was Iceland's flag.
3:53 - Fun fact: the HRE flag was, with the Green flag of Braganza Royal Family and the blue flag of Principate of Brazil, the bases for the actual flag of Brazil

3:54 no we didnt. The german Tricolour became Popular turing the revolitions in the 1840's. It isnt completly known why but the most common therory that it was ether based on a fraternety from jena or the so called "Lützow Free Corps" a volunteer force during the Napoleonic Wars. (as the fraternety got there colours from the "Lützow Free Corps" these theories are actualy the same)

btw. Germanys Flag didn't use the yellow because of the HRE. The current Flag comes from Student protests for Unification in the 1800s. They had a civil war and the uniforms have been black (easiest to dye) with golden buttons (yellow). The symobolgie is: from dark times (black) over a bloody fight (red) to a golden future (yellow, wich is actually gold)
