About the flag of Ethiopia
What it means: Red is generally said to stand for blood shed defending Ethiopia, yellow for peace between its peoples, and green for hope or the fertile land. The star's even rays represent equality.
Did you know? Ethiopia holds a Flag Day each year, in the month of Tikimt, to mark the tricolour's adoption in 1897.
