also there are no symbols on it, just the three solid stripes

Answer 1

There is no existing world flag as you describe it. The flags of Germany and Uganda are the only horizontally striped black, yellow and red flags:

Answer 2

The national flag of Germany is the closest one I can think of that sounds like the flag in your description, although the order of the colors is different.

Answer 3

I looked for the flag and all I found was the following:
Black over red over yellow = Germany
Red over white over black = Yemen
Now one that is vertical
Black (Next to pole, Yellow in center and Red on outer edge = Belgium

Answer 4

If the black were instead a deep purple, your 2nd description would match that of the Republican forces during the Spanish Civil War.
