Flag Meaning and History

The flag of Namibia was officially adopted on March 21, 1990. The main colors were inspired by the flag of SWAPO (South West African People’s Organization), a prominent liberation movement that played a significant role in the country’s struggle for independence.

The SWAPO flag, adopted in 1971, features diagonal stripes of blue, red, and green – colors that hold great significance for the Ovambos, the largest ethnic population in Namibia. These colors have been carried forward to the national flag, symbolizing the country’s rich cultural diversity.
