About the flag of Egypt
What it means: Red recalls blood shed against colonial rule, white the purity of Egyptian hearts, and black the overcoming of darkness. The eagle links back to the Egyptian vulture of ancient times.
Did you know? The same red, white and black stripes are used by Iraq, Sudan and Yemen, each with its own emblem in the white band.
