The flag of Ethiopia was adopted February 6, 1996. The colors of African unity - red, green, yellow - are seen here on one of the oldest African flags. Generally the red on this fl ag represents power or African blood spilled in defense of the land, the yellow is for peace and harmony, and the green is almost always said to represent the land and its fertility. The star testifies to Ethiopia's bright future and possibly echoes the connection with the House of King Solomon, while the yellow rays which it emits are said to represent the equality of all Ethiopians regardless of race, creed, or gender.
