The flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines was adopted on October 21, 1985. It is composed of three vertical bands of blue, yellow and green (the yellow band forming a Canadian pale being half the width of the flag) with three diamonds centered in the yellow band and arranged in a V which stands for Vincent. These diamonds recall Saint Vincent as the "gems of the Antilles". Blue represents the tropical sky and the crystal waters, yellow stands for the golden Grenadine sands, and green stands for the islands' lush vegetation. The diamonds are set low on the yellow band, recalling the nation's location in the Antilles. The previous flags had a realistic breadfruit leaf, where the gems are now, emblazoned with the coat of arms of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. ==Historical flags== File:Flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (1907-1979).svg|Colonial flag (to 1979) File:Flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (1979-1985).svg|1979 to 1985 File:Flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (1985).svg|March to October 1985 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 Saint Vincent and the Grenadines」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
