The Flag of Eritrea

Flag Detail

5 December was the day when Eritrea raised its national flag in 1995. Three horizontal red (top), green, and blue stripes run across its canting yellow symbol in the middle. They also mentioned the green band as standing for Eritrea's agriculture and natural resources and the red band as signifying the bloodshed during the country's liberation effort. The blue band enclosing Eritrea stands in for the sea, hope, and faith in the future. On the yellow symbol is an olive wreath, representing harmony among Eritreans.
