Facts about the flag:
The blue color in the flag symbolizes peace, the red is a reminder of the country's martyrs, the yellow is for the riches of the land, and the star represents the future.

The country gained its independence in 1960, after being ruled by Belgium since 1908, which is also the year the first Republic of the Congo was formed.

The design of the flag has changed many times, but their current flag is very similar to the two versions existing between the years 1963 and 1971. Their first flag as an independent nation featured a lighter shade of blue with a big yellow star in the middle, and six smaller stars positioned on the inner edge of the flag, closest to the flag pole.
