About the Flag
"The South African flag consists of equal sized horizontal lines with red top and blue bottom. These blue and red lines are separated by a green Y-shaped stripe with thin white stripes around them. On the left side of the flag is a black triangle surrounded by a thin yellow strip.
Although colors don’t have a formal meaning, black, green and yellow colors indicate Nelson Mandela’s political party, while the red, white and blue colors are also found in the African National Congress and the old Boer Republics flags. The South African flag was inspired by the colors and meanings of the old South African flags. Here, the red color; blood flowing in conflicts, blue; sky, green; the territory of the country, black; Black people in Africa, white; European people, yellow; symbolizes gold from natural sources."
