Flag of Lesotho - Design, Meaning, and History #3801993 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Lesotho consists of three horizontal stripes-blue, white, and green-with a black Basotho hat (mokorotlo) centered on the white stripe; the blue symbolizes rain and prosperity, white stands for peace, and green represents fertility and prosperity. The mokorotlo is a traditional conical hat worn by Basotho people and signifies cultural heritage and national identity. This design replaced the previous flag and was officially adopted on October 4, 2006, to mark the 40th anniversary of independence.
