National Flag Of Chad

National Flag Of Chad

The National Flag Of Chad is a Vertical Tricolor Consisting of a Blue, a Yellow and Red field. The Flag Of Chad was officially adopted on November 6, 1959. The Flag Of Chad is said to have been inspired by the French tricolor flag, and the colors by pan-Africa. In order to avoid confusion, Chad used vertical bands on Chad National Flag rather than horizontal and changed two of the colors. The three colors in the flag represent the following: Blue represents the sky, hope and agricultural strength of the southern part of the country. The yellow color on the flag is representative of the country’s northern desert and the sun. Red represents prosperity, unity and the bloodshed for independence.

 

Similarity With Romanian Flag

The National Flag Of Chad is the same as the official flag of Romania, except that the blue is darker in the Chadian flag. Both national flags are not related and the similarity was entirely accidental. Romania’s flag originally featured the coat of arms of the Socialist Republic of Romania. The coat of arms was removed in 1989. At that point, the flags of Romania and Flag Of Chad became indistinguishable from each other. In 2004, Chad asked the United Nations to examine the issue, but then-president of Romania Ion Iliescu announced no change would occur to the Flag Of Romania. the people Chad apparently believed that Romania had stolen their flag design on purpose.
