Romani Flag - Symbol of Roma Identity and Heritage #1908480 (License: Personal Use)

The Romani flag consists of three equal horizontal bands-yellow (top), white (middle), and gray (bottom)-with a maroon chakra (wheel) centered on the white stripe. The chakra has eight spokes, evoking the wheels of traditional Roma caravans and symbolizing movement, continuity, and the historical journey of the Roma people across continents. Yellow represents the Indian origins of the Roma, white stands for peace and integration, and gray signifies the hardships endured through centuries of persecution.
