Burundi Flag Patch

"Burundi flag is multiplied by placing white strips on each end corner. The triangles formed as a result of these strips, the upper and lower parts of the red colored, left and right side of the triangles are colored with green. In the middle of the flag, there is a white circle on top of the strips and triangles, three of them are in the upper section and two of them are placed in the lower section.

The red color in the flag symbolizes those who lost their lives in the struggle for independence, while the green color represents progress and hope and the white color represents peace. Three six-pointed stars in the flag represent the trilogy of Union, Work, Progress (Unité Travail Progrès), as well as the Hutu, Tutsi and Tvalar, three ethnic groups living in the country."
