The Sudanese flag consists of three horizontal stripes in black, white and red, followed by a green triangle on the left side of the flag (on the mast side).

The Sudanese flag is one of the symbols of the Republic of Sudan, a country located in East Africa, as is the Sudanese national anthem "Nahnu Djundulla Djundulwatan" (in Arabic: نحن جند الله جند الوطن, "We are the army of God and our lands"), the arms of Sudan and the motto "Al-nasr lana" (Victory is our own). Sudan is an African country bordering Libya, Egypt, Ethiopia, Chad, Central African Republic, as well as Southern Sudan. This country was a former British and Egypt colonies and it gained its independence in 1956.  The Sudanese flag was adopted on 20th May 1970.

The origins and history of the Sudanese flag

The four colours of the Sudanese flag: green, red, white and black are actually the pan-Arab colours. Their origins come from the first flag of the Arab revolt (in 1916), which stemmed from a poem by the Arab poet Safiy-Eddine Al-Hali: "white are our benefits, black are our battles, green are our pastures, red are our swords". The colours of Pan-Arabism are found on many national emblems of Arab countries such as the flag of Yemen, the Egyptian flag, the flag of Jordan, Kuwait or the United Arab Emirates among others.

As far as the Sudanese flag is concerned, some people give it the following interpretation for its colour:

The red colour for socialism, the blood of the fighters and the Arab nation as a whole. The white colour is synonymous with purity and optimistic people. The black color for the revolution and Sudan itself. Did you know that Sudan's Arabic name "balad as-sudaan" literally means "country of blacks"? In addition, Sudan is in fact a geographical area that extends from Central Africa to the south of the Sahel plain, also known as Nigeria in the past. The green triangle evokes both agriculture and the country's prosperity as well as its attachment to Islamic values.
