Sudan's flag is made up of three equal horizontal bands of red (top), white, and black with a green isosceles triangle on the left side. The colors and design of the flag are based on the Arab Revolt flag of World War I. The colors in the flag all represent different ideas. The red signifies Sudan's struggle for freedom. The white representing the color of peace, light, and love. The black representing Sudan itself, because in Arabic "Sudan" literally means black. The green of the triangle signifies the color of Islam, agriculture, and prosperity.
