Flag of Cameroon - National Symbol and Design Details #3531458 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Cameroon consists of three equal vertical bands of green (hoist side), red, and yellow, with a five-pointed yellow star centered on the red band. The green represents hope and the southern forests, red symbolizes unity, and yellow stands for the sun and savannahs of the north; the star signifies unity among the country’s diverse peoples. Officially adopted on May 20, 1975, it replaced the previous tricolor with two stars to reflect the reunification of former French and British Cameroons.
