Banner o Kuwait
Dimension 1:2The banner o Kuwait (Arabic: علم الكويت) wis adoptit on September 7, 1961 an offeecially hoistit November 24, 1961.
Afore 1961, the banner o Kuwait, lik those o ither Gulf states, wis reid an white. The present banner is in the Pan-Arab colours, but each colour is an aa significant in its awn richt. Black represents the defeat o the enemy, while reid is the colour o bluid on the Kuwaiti swords. White seembolizes purity, an green is for the fertile land.
The colours' meanin came frae a poem bi Safie Al-Deen Al-Hali:
- White are oor actions
- Black are oor wars
- Green are oor lands
- Red are oor swords
Rules o hangin an flyin the banner:
- Horizontally: The green stripe shoud be on tap.
- Vertically: The green stripe shoud be on the richt side o the banner.
