Malawi Flag: Rising Sun of African Liberation
The flag of Malawi features three horizontal stripes of black, red, and green, with a red rising sun on the black stripe. It was originally adopted on July 6, 1964, the day of independence, and restored in 2012 after a brief change.
Black represents the people of Africa, red the blood of martyrs for freedom, and green the land. The red sun symbolizes the dawn of hope and freedom for the African continent.
The flag is heavily inspired by the Pan-African movement and reflects the country’s pride in being among the first to achieve independence. It is flown during national holidays and state occasions as a sign of progress and unity.
