It shares the black, white, red, and green of the Sudanese flag (though different symbolism is given to the colours), in addition to having a chevron along the hoist. The horizontal black, white, red, and green bands of the flag share the same design as the Kenyan flag, and the Pan-African symbolism thereof. The Southern Sudanese government also specifies that the colours of the flag are to represent:〔(Government of South Sudan: State Symbols )〕 * Black: Black African skin. * Red: Blood that was shed by the liberation struggle martyrs. * Green: The country's natural resources and verdant land. * White: Peace attained after many years of the liberation struggle. * Blue: Waters of the Nile River, a source of life for the country. * Yellow: The unity of the states making up South Sudan. 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 South Sudan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
