Vanuatu Flag: Boar’s Tusk and the Spirit of Custom
The flag of Vanuatu, adopted on February 18, 1980, consists of horizontal red and green stripes with a black Y-shape bordered in yellow. A black triangle on the hoist contains a yellow boar’s tusk encircling two crossed namele leaves.
Red represents the blood of freedom fighters, green symbolizes the land and agriculture, black stands for the Melanesian people, and yellow represents Christianity and light. The boar’s tusk is a symbol of wealth and tradition, and the namele leaves represent peace.
The flag reflects Vanuatu’s cultural heritage and independence, proudly flown on Independence Day (July 30).
