Flag of Guyana
Facts, history and meaning about the flag of Guyana
Guyana is located in South America.
The official ISO 3166 code for Guyana is:
Guyana's national flag and ensign, also known as the "golden arrowhead", was adopted on May 20, 1966.
The flag contains the colors green, yellow, white, black and red. The green color represents the forests and agriculture, the narrow white edge represents the water resources, and the yellow field in the center of the flag represents mineral riches.
The red symbolizes the people's dedication and the black edge shows us the perseverance and patience required to build a new state. The flag initially lacked the black and white stripes, which now serve as delimiters of the fields. These stripes were added by the British College of Arms, a heraldic authority.
The colors red, green and yellow are also the traditional pan-African colors used in many other African flags, including the one used in Ghana.
