Flag of Comoros


Flag ratio: 3:5
This flag design is a new one, and was adopted in
2003. The
crescent is retained from the previous flag, but instead of having a crescent on a green field only, the crescent is located in a triangle. Four stripes were added to this new design to symbolize the four islands of the nation: yellow is for Moheli, white for
Mayotte, red for
Anjouan, and blue for Grand Comore. Likewise, the four stars stand for the four islands, while the crescent stands for
Islam, which is the major religion on
Comoros.
