Sudan: Flag of the Sudan

The flag of Sudan was adopted on May 20, 1970, and consists of a horizontal red-white-black tricolor, with a green triangle at the hoist. The flag is based on the Arab Liberation Flag shared by Egypt, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, that uses a subset of the Pan-Arab colors in which green is less significant.

Before the 1969 military coup of Gaafar Nimeiry, a blue-yellow-green tricolor design was used.
