The National flag of Gambia consists of a horizontal tricolour of red, blue and green. The stripes are separated by thinner white stripes. The red, blue and green symbolize the sun, the Gambia river and the land respectively and the white represents peace between all. The flag was adopted in February 1965, when Gambia became fully independent from Britain.
