GEOGRAPHY QUESTION #8065
Which country does this flag belong to?
Democratic Republic of Congo
Explanation
The national flag of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is a sky blue flag, adorned with a yellow star in the upper left canton and cut diagonally by a red stripe with a yellow fimbriation. It was adopted on 20 February 2006. A new constitution, ratified in December 2005 and which came into effect in February 2006, promoted a return to a flag similar to that flown between 1963 and 1971, with a change from a royal blue to sky blue background. Blue represents peace. Red stands for "the blood of the country''s martyrs", yellow the country''s wealth; and the star a radiant future for the country.
