Rwanda's previous flag was a red-yellow-green tricolor with a large black letter 'R' (to distinguish it from the otherwise identical Flag of Guinea). Derived from the flag of Ethio pia, the colors green, yellow and red represented peace; the nation's hope for future development; and the people. The flag was changed because it had become associated with the brutality of the Rwandan Genocide. Show more
