History of the Flag of Papua
Papua New Guinea is one of the most popular countries on the African continent. When you visit the country today, you may notice that the Papua flag is used in a wide area. Because the country has been under the colonialism of the Western country in the past. For this reason, it has struggled for a long time in the national struggle. The national flag of Papua New Guinea was first adopted on July 1, 1971. The country was controlled by Australia until before this date. The country gained full independence from this country on September 16, 1975. At the same time, a different competition was organized by the state in 1971. Accordingly, Susan Karike, a local art instructor who was the winner of the competition for the best design of the country’s flag, was awarded by the country’s legal administration. With the independence of Papua New Guinea, the flag gained National flag status. Since then, the flag has continued to be used without any variations.
Papua Flag Meaning
When you examine the flag of the country, you can see that it consists of 2 triangle icons placed diagonally in total. The left part is made of black color tone and the right part is made of red color tone within the triangle icon.
