Flag

The flag of Dominica has a green field with a
cross made up of three lines colored yellow, white and
black. In the center is a red circle that contains a
Sisserou Parrot surrounded by ten stars. The Sisserou
Parrot is the national bird and the ten stars represent
the ten parishes of the island but also stand
for hope and equality. The lines that form the
cross symbolize Dominica`s Christian faith. The
green on the flag represents the green landscape of the
island, the red stands for social justice, the black for
the earth and African ancestry. The color yellow
stands for sunshine and the white symbolizes purity
and the clear waters. The flag was adopted on
November 3, 1978 and has had some minor changes since
then.
