Facts about the flag of Syria
Date adopted: 30 March 1980
Symbolism: The flag features the Pan-Arab colors of red, white, black, and green. The two green stars represent Syria and Egypt, symbolizing the unity between the two countries during the United Arab Republic period.
- Pantone colours: Red, White, Black, Green
- Aspect ratio: 2 : 3
- Hanging protocol: The flag is typically hung horizontally with the red stripe on top, white in the middle, and black at the bottom, with the two green stars centered in the white stripe.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is confusing the Syrian flag with the flags of Iraq or Egypt, which have similar colors but different star arrangements or emblems.
