The flag of Uganda was adopted on October 9, 1962, the date that Uganda became independent from the United Kingdom. The three colors, derived from those of the Uganda People's Cong ress, are representative of African peoples (black), Africa's sunshine (yellow), and African brotherhood (red being the color of blood, through which all Africans are connected). The Grey-crowned Crane is fabled for its gentle nature and was also the military badge of Ugandese soldiers during British rule. Show more
