Flag of Tanzania

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The flag of Tanzania was adopted in 1964. It derives from the flags of Tanganyika and Zanzibar. The flag is divided diagonally by a yellow-edged black band from the lower hoist-side corner. The upper triangle (hoist side) is green and the lower triangle is blue.

The colours of the flag have been specified by the Planning and Privatisation department of the President’s Office of Tanzania.
