Facts about the flag of Lesotho
Date adopted: 4 October 2006
Symbolism: The flag features a horizontal triband of blue, white, and green, with a black Basotho hat (mokorotlo) in the center. Blue represents the sky and rain, white symbolizes peace, and green stands for prosperity. The Basotho hat is a symbol of the Basotho people.
- Pantone colours: Black, Blue, White, Green
- Aspect ratio: 2 : 3
- Hanging protocol: The flag of Lesotho is typically hung with the black, white, and green horizontal stripes from top to bottom, with the black Basotho hat (mokorotlo) centered on the white stripe.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is confusing the orientation of the stripes or misplacing the Basotho hat emblem, which should be centered on the white stripe.
