History
Myanmar adopted this flag on 21 October 2010. The yellow band represents solidarity and unity, the green symbolizes peace, tranquility, and the country’s lush land, and the red stands for courage, decisiveness, and the bravery of the people. The central white star signifies hope and the aspirations of the populace. Earlier national flags included a red field with a blue canton bearing white stars from 1948 to 1974, and a red field with a blue canton containing a cogwheel, rice ear, and fourteen stars from 1974 to 2010.
