The Republic of The Gambia and all its symbols

The Gambia's national flag was adopted in 1965, the year in which Gambia gained its independence from the United Kingdom.

This vexillary emblem is one of the symbols chosen by the Republic of the Gambia to represent its country with the national coat of arms of Gambia, the national anthem "For the Gambia Our Homeland" and the national motto "Progress, Peace, Prosperity". It should be noted that the Panthera Leo lion is also the emblematic animal that Gambia has chosen to represent the nation like many other African countries such as Ethiopia, Burundi, Cameroon, the Republic of Congo, Liberia, Mauritania, Senegal, Sierra Leone or Chad!

Everything you need to know about the meaning of the flag of the West African country of Gambia with AZ Flag!

The Gambian flag consists of three horizontal bands: from top to bottom a red, a blue and a green one. Each colour is separated by a thinner white band. It is one of the symbols of the Republic of The Gambia, a West African country landlocked in Senegal that is part of ECOWAS. Did you know that Gambia is also the smallest country in Continental Africa? Its name comes from the fact that Gambia is a slender country that is located across the Gambia River that crosses it to flow into the Atlantic Ocean in the west of the country.

The colours of the Gambia represent the country, its history and geographical realities: red at the top corresponds to the sun and the plain landscapes of the Gambian savannah ; blue is the colour of the Gambia River and green is the country's forests and agriculture. The two white stripes were chosen to illustrate the union and unification of the people and the peace to which they aspire.

This flag embodies the freedom of Gambia obtained during its independence and its desire to remain close to nature which are very strong symbols!
