Flag of Ivory Coast : ウィキペディア英語版 | Flag of Ivory Coast
The flag of Ivory Coast ((フランス語:Drapeau de la Côte d'Ivoire)) features three equal vertical bands of orange (hoist side), white, and green. After independence, the Ivory Coast formed a loose alliance of West African states. The flags of these states were influenced both by the Pan-African colours first used by Ghana, and also by the model of the French Tricolour, the flag of the former colonial power. The colours chosen for the Ivory Coast's flag were also used by Niger, with which the Ivory Coast had an alliance. They were intended to symbolise the following: the orange colour stands for the land, the savannah found in the northern part and its fertility, the white represents peace, and the green represents hope and also the forest of the southern part of the country.〔(Flags of the World - Cote d'Ivoire )〕 The flag was adopted in 1959, just prior to independence. ==Similar flags== The flag is similar to the flag of Ireland, but the latter is longer and has the colors reversed: the green is at the hoist side. It has also similar colors to those of India, Italy, and Niger.
