Jordan

About the flag

The flag depicted is the national flag of Jordan, characterized by its distinctive horizontal stripes of black, white, and green with a red chevron containing a seven-pointed star. Each color represents a different Arab revolt, while the star symbolizes unity and the seven verses of the first chapter of the Quran, highlighting Jordan's Islamic heritage. Jordan's flag was officially adopted in 1928, reflecting its historical ties to the Arab Revolt against Ottoman rule. To remember this flag, note the unique red chevron and the star, which sets it apart from other flags in the region. This flag serves as a reminder of Jordan's cultural identity and the unity of the Arab people while being one of the few nations in the Middle East to enjoy relative stability and peace.
