About the flag

The flag represented by 🇿🇲 is that of Zambia, which features a green field symbolizing the country's lush vegetation, with an orange eagle soaring above three vertical stripes of red, black, and orange. The eagle signifies the nation's freedom, while the stripes represent the people of Zambia and the richness of its copper resources. Zambia gained independence from British colonial rule in 1964, and its flag reflects the country's pride in its natural resources and cultural heritage.

Each element is a reminder of the country’s journey towards independence and its aspirations for a bright future, making it significant in understanding both the flag and Zambia's national identity.
