Facts about the flag of Zambia
Date adopted: 24 October 1964
Designer: Gabriel Ellison
Symbolism: The green field represents Zambia's natural resources and vegetation. The red stripe symbolizes the struggle for freedom, the black stripe represents the Zambian people, and the orange stripe stands for the country's mineral wealth. The eagle in flight symbolizes the people's ability to rise above the nation's problems.
- Pantone colours: Green, Red, Black, Orange
- Aspect ratio: 2 : 3
- Hanging protocol: The flag of Zambia is typically hung with the green field on the left and the vertical stripes of red, black, and orange on the right, with the eagle above the stripes.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is to place the vertical stripes on the left side instead of the right, or to display the flag upside down.
