History & Meaning of the Haiti Flag

The Haitian flag was first adopted by the Republic of Haiti in 1806, two years after the end of the Haitian Revolution from France, under the rule of President Alexandre Pétion. On February 25, 2012, the flag was codified in the updated Constitution of Haiti.

According to legend, the colors red and blue were chosen by revolutionary leader Jean-Jacques Dessalines, who tore the white stripe out of the French tricolor flag. Catherine Flon, a seamstress, sewed the remaining strips together to form the first Haitian flag. In the center of the flag is Haiti's national coat of arms, on which a trophy of weapons and a royal palm tree are shown to represent independence. The state motto of “L'Union fait la Force,” or “Unity makes strength,” is written underneath.
