Flag of Guinea-Bissau
|
The Flag of Guinea-Bissau was adopted in 1973 after the nation received its independence from Portugal. The flag features the traditional Pan-African colors of gold, green, red, and also the Black Star of Africa. The flag's design is heavily influenced by the Flag of Ghana. The colors have the same meanings: specifically, the red is for the blood of martyrs, green for forests, and gold for mineral wealth.
