Uganda: about the flag
Uganda's flag has a grey crowned crane at its center, a bird that has been a symbol of the country since colonial times. The crane faces the hoist, standing on one leg in a white disc.
The flag was designed by Grace Ibingira, the Minister of Justice, and adopted on 9 October 1962, the day Uganda became independent. The six horizontal stripes repeat black, yellow, and red. Black stands for the Ugandan people, yellow for sunshine, and red for brotherhood. The crane is a symbol of good fortune, longevity, and wealth among the Baganda people.
The original proposal for the flag had vertical stripes of green, blue, and green with a yellow crane silhouette. A change in government before independence led to the current horizontal design being chosen instead.
