The national '''flag of [[Djibouti]]''' ([[French language|French]]: ''Drapeau de Djibouti'') features two equal horizontal bands of [[blue]] (top) and [[green]] with a [[white]] [[isosceles triangle]] based on the hoist side bearing a red five-pointed star (representing the areas [[Somalis]] live in the region) in the centre. (These five areas are [[British Somaliland]] ([[Somalia]]), [[Italian Somaliland]] (Somalia), [[French Somaliland]] (Djibouti), the [[Ogaden]], and the [[North Eastern Province (Kenya)|Northern Frontier District]].) The colours used can be seen to symbolise the [[earth]] (green), the [[sea]] and [[sky]] (blue) and [[peace]] (white), with the red star representing unity. It was hoisted on the day of the [[independence]] of Djibouti on 27 June 1977. There is a red five-pointed star on Djibouti's white triangle.<br />
<br />
The national flag, adopted in 1977, was an adaptation of the flag of the Ligue Populaire Africaine pour l'Independence (LPAI) that led Djibouti to independence. The LPAI flag had a red triangle with a white star. For the national flag, the star was placed in an upright rather than a slanted position, and the proportions of the flag were lengthened. The light blue represents the [[Issa (clan)|Issa]] [[Somali people|Somalis]], and the green represents the [[Afar people|Afar]]. White, green, and light blue are the colors of the LPAI. The red star signifies the unity of the diverse state. <br />
