The flag of Somalia was adopted on October 12, 1954. The five edges of star symbolize the five areas where Somalis live. These five places are British Somaliland, Italian Somaliland, French Somaliland (Djibouti), Ogaden (Ethiopia) and Northeastern Kenya. Our international flags are accurately reproduced to exact specifications. The flag has 2 brass grommets on the left edge for hanging. The 4″x6″ size is mounted to a staff with a spear top. Polyester flags are imported and not recommended for prolonged outdoor use. For outdoor use, we recommend our nylon flags. Also available below is an indoor/ceremonial version of the flag with a pole sleeve and gold fringe.
NOTE: Indoor flags are made-to-order, so please allow 2-3 days before your order will ship if you order an indoor flag.
