Dominica Flag Colors, Meaning, & History
The current flag of Dominica was adopted in 1978 and revised several times before the last update in 1990. Alwin Bully created the original design while the country was in the process of attaining independence from Great Britain.
The green background color stands for the island’s vegetation and plant life, while the yellow, black, and white stripes represent the country’s citizens, arable land, and water. The red circle in the center symbolizes justice, and the ten green stars inside represent Dominica’s ten parishes.
The central animal is the sisserou parrot, the national bird of Dominica. The endangered sisserou parrot is native to Dominica, and only about 250 to 350 individuals of the species are left.
