Flag of Comoros

The current flag of Comoros was adopted in 2003.

Flag ratio 3:5
Four stripes symbolize the four islands of the nation: yellow is for Mohéli, white for Mayotte (claimed by Comoros but administered by France), red for Anjouan, and blue for Grand Comore. The four stars next to the crescent also stand for the islands, while the crescent stands for Islam, which is the major religion on Comoros.
