Flag of Maldives
The flag of the Maldives, which has been used in its current form since 1965, consists of a red sheet with a smaller green rectangle on top. In addition, there is a white crescent symbol in the middle of the green field. Green is the traditional color of Islam and also signifies progress and peace. The color red is reminiscent of the blood shed in the freedom struggle, and the crescent moon is another traditional symbol of Islam. The flag, which was used in the times of the autonomous sultanate, carried a white stripe with slanting black stripes in the pole part, in contrast to the current flag. The previous flag, still in use at the beginning of the 20th century, consisted only of a red leaf, which was common to many Arab island territories.
Maldives is an island state in the southwest of the southern tip of India in the Indian Ocean and consists of several atolls and 1,996 islands, 220 of which are inhabited by locals and 87 others are reserved exclusively for tourists. See Maldives Location on World Map.
