Mali Flag: Green, Gold, and Red of Pan-African Unity
The flag of Mali is a vertical tricolor of green, gold, and red, adopted on March 1, 1961, shortly after independence from France. It follows the pattern of many Pan-African nations, symbolizing solidarity and independence.
Green represents the land and agriculture, gold symbolizes purity and wealth, and red stands for the blood of those who died in the struggle for independence.
Mali's flag originally included a black human figure (kanaga), but it was removed to align with Islamic traditions. Today, the simple tricolor continues to serve as a symbol of unity and national pride.
