The flag of Uganda was adopted in connection with the independence on the 9th of October, 1962, with the proportions 2:3.
The flag has six bands featuring the colors black, yellow and red, from the top down, with two of each color. In the center of the flag is the country's national symbol, which is an East African crowned-crane on a white circular background.
