The South African Flag
Flag meaning Black, green and yellow are the colors of Nelson Mandela's political party. The flag incorporates also the colors of the former Boer republics flags (red, white, and blue). The Y shape represents South Africa's diverse society and unity. The past meanings of the colors were that red stands for bloodshed, blue for open blue skies, green for the land, black for the black people, white for the European people and yellow for the natural resources such as gold.
