      Green stands for the riches of the land, the white fimbriations signify peace, black represents the African continent, yellow symbolises the country's minerals, and red represents the struggle for independence. The rifle stands for defence and vigilance, the open book symbolises the importance of education, the hoe represents the country's agriculture, and the star symbolises Marxism and internationalism.

    These strange dots actually are a "magical square". It was made by asians and this is a so-called "mathematical pattern". The sense of it is that summary of dots on other sides is 10, from top clockwise: 7 and 3, 6 and 4, 1 and 9, 8 and 2.
    Please like it to get to top. Btw if you want to know, i know about it from B. A. Kordemsky's book "Математическая смекалка" (mathemarical savvy).

    Me: * a Michigander* looks at state flag on the wall of my room.....ya we need to change it. FUN FACT! In 1911 our state flag had a white background but it was changed to Union blue.
