The flag's green color symbolizes hope and prosperity, while the yellow represents the sands of the Sahara Desert. A distinctive feature is the red bands at the top and bottom, which were added in 2017.
The red bands were added by a national referendum to honor the blood of those who sacrificed their lives for independence from France. This is a significant change that shows the nation's will to move forward without forgetting its painful history.
