The flag of Grenada was adopted in 1974. The seven stars stand for the country's seven parishes, with the middle star, encircled by a red disk, standing for the parish of Saint George, where the capital, Saint George's, is located.
Historically, Grenada has sometimes been known as the "Spice Island," because of the abundant spices that are grown there. This is represented by the symbol on the left-hand side of the flag, which represents a clove of nutmeg, one of Grenada's principal crops.
