Flag of Burundi / Burundian (jpg) |
The national flag of Burundi was adopted on March 28, 1967. The green colour symbolizes hope, the white symbolizes purity, and red the struggle for independence(blood). The flag has a basic white saltier that divides the field into four areas, two green, and two red. In the centre is a circle that contains three stars which stand for the three major ethnic groups of Burundi: the Hutu, the Twa and the Tutsi. The three stars also stand for the three elements of the national motto: unity, work and progress. The ratio of the flag was 2:3 until September 27, 1982.
