The history of the Iraq flag with AZ Flag, your online flag store !

It is quite recently that the Iraqi parliament and the Iraqi Government adopted the new Iraqi flag, most precisely on 22nd January 2008. This flag is currently a temporary flag.

The difference with the different old versions of the Iraqi flag is that the three stars of the white band (which represented the alliance with Egypt and Syria in the beginning, and later the symbol of the Baath party) have been removed for the time being.

The four colours of the Iraq flag are the Pan-Arab colours, colours from the Great Arab Revolt (1916-1918) found on most flags of Arab countries such as the flags of Sudan, Yemen, Kuwait, Jordan or Syria, which honour Islam, the most widespread religion in the country, with the Muslim motto minted in its centre: Allah Akbar. This takbîr (magnification of God) motto has its origin in the 17th Sura of the Koran called Al-Isra.

The Iraqi flag of 2/3 (height/width ratio) is currently used as the flag of the State and war of Iraq as well as the national maritime flag used by the Merchant Navy, the State and the Iraqi Navy. It is represented by the vexillological symbol used by the International Federation of Vexillological Associations (FIAV).
