Where to buy an Algeria flag? Its meaning and history

Between the 15th and 17th Century, the Barbary pirates of Ottoman used flags that had one or more crescents. However, these varied in colours like dark red, black, green and white. Various flags in plain colour such as plain black ones signalling death was also used by Algerian pirates. It was very rare to find Algeria flags of this time to have other motifs, such as suns, stars and crossed swords. Algiers also used an orange flag with a white horizontal sword on it in the early 19th century.

The Algerian flag draws its symbolism from Islam with the red crescent symbolising the crescent moon that marks the end of Ramadan and which surrounds a 5-pointed star which is an Islamic symbol of the five pillars of Islam. The green colour represents the colour of Islam and the white colour is for purity. First used by the National Liberation Front (FLN) and the provisional government of the Algerian Republic during the Algerian war, the Algerian flag of size 2:3 was adopted in 1962, the year of the proclamation of the independence of Algeria which was liberated from colonialism. Today, this flag is used in Algeria as a national, commercial and state flags.
