Lesotho Flag Meaning & History
Lesotho’s first national flag was adopted in 1966, which included the blue and green colors, as well as the symbol of the mokorotlo. The modern design was adopted in 2006 and features blue, white, and green stripes, and a black mokorotlo.
The mokorotlo is a type of straw hat commonly used by the nation’s citizens. It is considered a national symbol and also appears on license plates. The blue stripe represents sky and rain, while green is for prosperity. The white stands for peace, both within the country and internationally.
