Benin

Description

Celebrate the history, independence, and unity of West Africa with this 3×5 ft Benin National Flag. First adopted in 1959, just before Benin (then known as Dahomey) gained independence from France in 1960, the flag was later restored in 1990 following the country’s return to democratic rule.

The flag features the Pan-African colors in a unique layout:

• A vertical green band on the hoist side represents hope and revival

• The top horizontal band is yellow, symbolizing wealth and the savannahs of the north

• The bottom horizontal band is red, representing the courage and sacrifices of the people

This color scheme expresses solidarity with other African nations and reflects Benin’s commitment to peace, prosperity, and cultural pride. The vibrant layout makes this flag both meaningful and visually distinctive.

Crafted from lightweight, fade-resistant polyester, this flag is ideal for indoor or outdoor use. It includes double-stitched edges to resist fraying and two rust-proof brass grommets for easy hanging. Perfect for Independence Day (August 1), African heritage events, embassies, schools, and cultural displays.
