The national flag of Bangladesh ((ベンガル語:বাংলাদেশের জাতীয় পতাকা) ) was adopted officially on 17 January 1972. It consists of a red disc on top of a green field, offset slightly toward the hoist so that it appears centred when the flag is flying. The red disc represents the sun rising over Bengal, and also the blood of those who died for the independence of Bangladesh. The green field stands for the lushness of the land of Bangladesh. The flag is based on a similar flag used during the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971, which had a yellow map of the country inside the red disc. In 1972 this map was deleted from the flag. One reason given was the difficulty for rendering the map correctly on both sides of the flag.〔 The civil ensign and naval ensign place the national flag in the canton of a red or white field, respectively. ==Origin== The first version of the flag was designed and made by a section of student leaders and activists of Shawdhin Bangla Nucleus on June 6, 1970, at room 108 of Iqbal Hall (now Sergeant Zahurul Haq hall), Dhaka University; students involved with the design were namely Kazi Aref Ahmed, ASM Abdur Rab, Shahjahan Siraj, Manirul Islam (Marshal Moni), Swapan Kumar Choudhury, Quamrul Alam Khan (Khasru), Hasanul Haq Inu, Yousuf Salahuddin Ahmed and few others. The flag was made from clothes donated by Bazlur Rahman Lasker, the owner of Apollo Tailors, Dhaka New Market.〔http://www.prothom-alo.com/pachmisheli/article/98845/আমাদের_জাতীয়_পতাকা〕 A map of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) was first traced on a tracing paper from Atlas by Hasanul Haq Inu, Yousuf Salahuddin Ahmed and Enamul Haq, at Enamul's room (312) in Quaid-I Azam Hall (now Titumir Hall), EPUET.〔'সাক্ষাত্কার-ইউসুফ সালাহউদ্দিন আহমেদ', (), ২০১৪〕〔'সাক্ষাত্কার-ইউসুফ সালাহউদ্দিন আহমেদ', (), ২০১৪〕 Later the map was painted in the red circle by Shib Narayan Das.〔'আমাদের জাতীয় পতাকার ইতিহাস', আমাদের সময়, ডিসেম্বর ৩, ২০০৯〕 On March 2, 1971, this initial version of the flag was hoisted in Bangladesh for the first time at Dhaka University, by student leader A. S. M. Abdur Rab, the then Vice President of Dhaka University Students' Union (DUCSU)〔Glassie, Henry and Mahmud, Feroz. 2008. Living Traditions. Cultural Survey of Bangladesh Series-II. Asiatic Society of Bangladesh. Dhaka. p.580〕 The flag was conceived so as to exclude the crescent and the star considered as symbols of West Pakistan. According to ''CIA World Fact Book'',〔(Flag of Bangladesh ), Flags of the World.〕〔"Lonely Planet: Bangladesh", 4th Edition, Lonely Planet Publications, (December 2000), ISBN 0-86442-667-4.〕 the green used in the flag represent the lushness of the green landscape of the country. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Flag of Bangladesh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
