▶ In this video I talk about Arab flags and explain why they look so similar. First going through the historical context of the colours and how they relate / have their origin in the historical banners of islamic caliphates. Then learning about the first time the colours were used together in the Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Empire in 1916. Then being recovered in 1952 with the Arab Revolt in Egypt. With both of these revolutionary flags serving as the origin for many of the flags in the Middle-East and North-Africa today; such as those of Egypt, Palestine, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait, Yemen, the UAE, Libya, Sudan and even unrecognized states such as Somaliland and El Sahrawi.

We like it this way and they didnt design our flags
what are you saying?
@@Ahmadbeik99 True. It kind of saying that the French designed half of Europe's flags. There's inspiration, and then there's authorship. There's nothing wrong with the flags of Arabic nations, just like there's nothing wrong with the flags of countries in central Africa and their pan-African colours.
@@Ahmadbeik99 no we dont. its the reason our nations are unstable monarchies or war torn lands, or stolen artificial israel. United and borderless is stronger.

Just a small correction: in the minute 10:47, that displayed flag is Kuwait's, not UAE's
Something did feel off
🇰🇼 Kuwait
🇦🇪 UAE
When that came up I thought, wait a minute, Kuwait is the only flag that looks like the inside of a box...
You're using Kuwait's flag for the UAE.
UAE had a red box on the left.
Glad someone else also noticed the error.
Another correction, it says Oman as an emirate while he meant Ajman
Interesting! But I was told a different story growing up: the colors are the seas dominating the geography of the Arabic speaking lands. The RED sea, the BLACK sea, and the WHITE sea (that is how we call the Mediterranean Sea). The GREEN is the hope for prosperity when the west leaves us alone at peace.
Interesting, we call Mediterranean "Akdeniz" which is basically "White Sea" in Turkish. But Black Sea is far from Arab lands, right?
technically at the time it was on ottomans so it makes sense for me.@@hamdicakr6061
These colors were used by other countries when 100% of Arab countries didn't exist yet and were ottoman vessel states!! Flags with Red white and green have nothing to do with Arabs and semetic history but ancient West Asian culture and religion!! Whoever made this video didn't do enough research
you know colors can have diffirent meanings in flags. please dont say no research when you havent done enough research. litteraly how do you know your correct@@O.G-user
Red sea, black sea, white sea... 😂😂 So unlucky of them that they cannot claim the sea green...😂

I'm Egyptian and growing up, they used to tell us in school that red represented the blood of the martyrs of different periods, black represented the dark periods of colonialism, white represented peace, and the eagle represented our ability to fly through all of these periods and overcome all of those challenges.
So, in my opinion, I think since we - the arab countries - were mostly occupied by the same empires -french and English - we happen to have the same colors for the same story.
May I ask about the Ottoman Era? What do people mostly think about that times? Also colonialism or smthng different? Just curious😊
@@omerbaranbali9194 They had their pros and cons, but they contributed to our economy in different ways.
And you should still trust what you were taught in school, Look up king tut Cartouche and how it has inspiration on the current egyptian flag. Not everything can be attributed to a pattern.
@@omerbaranbali9194 Allow me to express my opinion regarding the Ottoman era. I am from Saudi Arabia and most of us agree that the Ottoman period was one of the worst periods, as they burned libraries and did not build at least one school. Finally, they stole several treasures belonging to the Arabs in Saudi Arabia, and among what was stolen was a sword. We respect its owner.
Eagle represents Muhammad tribe.

This is not true. Every flag of an Arab country has its own meanings, for example, Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan, Kuwait and the Emirates. The red color does not refer to the Hashemites, it refers to the blood of the martyrs, black to mourning, and white to goodness. As for Jordan, for example, red refers to revolution, black to the Abbasid state, and white to the Umayyad state. And green to the Fatimid state

That was actually a very interesting video. I've subconsciously always seen these patterns in the flags, but never really thought about it. It's fascinating to see how Pan-Arabism was symbolically expressed in the three colors (red, black, and white), and how they were the colors of the former empires. All those Pan-Arab colors of the Arab nation-states today originated in the flag used in the Arab Revolt of 1916. It's also interesting how some Arab Muslim monarchies today use green to demonstrate how they rule by divine will. Red, furthermore was used by Arab monarchies of the time of the Ottomans, showing their legitimacy by associating their states with the Ottoman monarchial color of red. Well-done video lessons. Thanks!

I am Iraqi and I've only heard of the second explanation, which is relating the colors to the poem of Safi al-Din al-Hilli. I've never heard of the explanation relating it to previous Caliphates. Also, the Arab revolt against the Ottoman Empire and the regimes that resulted from it are mostly nationalistic/secularist so it wouldn't make sense to relate their flags to a governance system they had chosen to abandon.
Yes I’m Syrian and I also only hear of Safi al-Din al-Hilli and have never heard of the first explanation

For the curious people out there, take a look at the flags of Andalucía and Extremadura, in Southern Spain, and you'll clearly see these color patterns as well. This is no coincidence, as these are the regions that were influenced the most by the presence of islam and the caliphate thru the first and half of the second millennium AD. I am unaware of whether this is also the case of Portugal's Southern most provinces, but I would expect something similar.
It's not.
Having green and white flag doesn't make the flag of pan arabism. Andalucia flag are different than arab flag.
@@vidarodinson5246 No one said Andalucia belongs or belonged to the pan arab movement. That would be ridiculous. But the fact that the arabs lived in the iberian peninsula DOES have a direct relation with the colors of both andalucia and extremadura's flags. The influence of that period can be seen not only in their flags, by the way, it's evident in the language (and the specific southern dialects), the culture and, obviously (for anyone who's visited granada, for instance), in the architecture.
@ I mean the colour of the flag are not affected by Arab colours.
Yes the language and architecure are affected by Arabs, but not the flag.
Cause andalucia was ruled by moors (moroccans) not arabs and morocco was not part of the ottoman empire
Awesome video. Have you done a video on the Pan-African Rastafari colours used on the flags on many central and west African countries?

For Sudan it's original flag was never the Arab flag, before the Arab flag there was the Black African flag which then inspired Rwanda and Gabon flag. ua-cam.com/video/bIt6XomyVZw/v-deo.html You should watch this link to learn more about the AU formally known as AOU (African Organization Unity) And how different countries banded together to create their own ideological groups.

I'd like a video on the tricolor flags so common that I have given up trying to remember them. I think of them mostly as European, but they are common elsewhere too. Is there any pattern to them? Are some the reverse of others, or reversed and on their side (rotated 90° instead of 180°). Some have the three color bars, but add a central drawing.
In a shortcut all tricolour flags in Europe have something to do with franch revolution and as for tricolour flags outside as in Africa they all have something to do with colonial powers
Some examples of tricolour flags that look like each other :-
Chad and Romania
Ivory Coast and Ireland
All originate from the Dutch tricolour, including the French one.
The old French blue white and red vertical tricoleur is the basis for many. Italy is similar but green white and red (Mexico's is the same with a coat of arms in the middle). In Belgium, the blue has turned black and the white yellow. Romania and Chad have the French one with yellow instead of white (the only difference is Chad's blue is darker), as do Andorra and Moldova but they have their coats of arms in the middle. Mali's is France with the blue turned green and the white turned yellow (the Pan-African red, gold and green) and another French colony Guinea has the same but flipped. Nigeria, Peru and Guatemala have only two colours on their vertical "tricoleurs" (green white green, red white red and sky blue white sky blue with a bird in the middle respectively). If you imagine the blue and red of France's turning green and orange for Catholics and Protestants (then squash it flatter), you have Ireland's flag. Ivory Coast's is like Ireland's reversed. I think the only other national flags which are vertical tricoleurs are Cameroon and Senegal (green red yellow with a yellow star in the middle and green yellow red with a green star in the middle). There's 17 to start with, then you can start on the horizontal tricoleurs...

I noticed that also. Except the Horsemen’s green is supposed to be a sickly gray-green blend. So either it is the “pale” horse trying to avoid exposing himself while still bound to fulfill God’s Word. Either that or it is history repeating itself, with the true Pale Horse being either in the past or future.

The colors in the Egyptian flag refer to the country's history and national symbols. The red color represents the blood of the Egyptian people that was shed during their struggles for independence, while the white color symbolizes peace and neutrality. The black color represents the darkness that the country had to go through before achieving independence, and the eagle of Saladin, the symbol of the country, which is also represented in the flag.

This should be a learning channel, so let's learn.
Simple answer why. Because Sykes one of the “Sykes-Picot Agreement” witch carved out the Middle East between Britain and France did it for the British intelligence.
Black
Green
White.
Flag facsimiles for a new Arab state, designed by Sykes in a letter to Wingate in February 1917. The suggested colors were symbolic of the Arab dynasties: Abbassid, black; Omayad, white; Alid, green and red for the sharif and "most of the trucial chiefs." Sykes suggested that the ensign should be flown "whenever the French flag is flown" in areas A and B.
In conclusion all these Arab countries have the occupiers flag.
when the british and the french had colonized the countries, they had planned to let go of them but didn't want their to be one great strong nation united as it would be a threat to israel which was already in the works. though all arab countries are really unique and distinct, this color combo made them have a sense of similarity and unity in a new way. in 1945, the arab league was just for show. many of the countries were still protectorates and colonies of britain.

Of all youtube channels, I didn't think General Knowledge would fall to the rookie mistake of grouping "arab" flags together and brushing it off to the arabian revolt flag, although it is an easy mistake to make for non-arabic speakers because english language historical content on that era is hopelessly incomplete at best and totally ignorant at worst.
Short version: That's like saying that the American, British, French, Dutch and many other flags base their designs on the red white and blue Pan-Slavic colors.
The Arabian Revolt happened about fifty years before the Renaissance republican revolts, and Egypt was already an independent kingdom around another fifty years prior to the arabian revolt itself.
In fact, the Arabian revolt and the Renaissance republican revolts not only do not share principles, goals and origins, but are enemies that went to war with each other. In short; one was for the establishment of arabian monarchies, and the other was for the abolishment of those monarchies and establishing socialist republics. Their goals were exactly the opposite of each other, and that was reflected in wars and armed revolts between the two movements.
The story of the Arab revolt flag is covered well, but the Egyptian colors coverage leaves a lot to be said. The pan arab socialist movement started well after the establishment of the Republic of Egypt in 1953. To this day, the egyptian constitution does not relate the egyptian colors to the arabic revolt movement nor does it explain the choice of colors in any way actually. There is a belief that in the early fifties before the subscription of egypt to the pan arab movement, the design is a direct copy of the egyptian colors on the possessions chest of Tutankhamen which referred to him as "the ruler of egypt from Thebes" in three symbols; Ruler: a ruling staff, Thebes: the symbol of Thebes, and Egypt: a tricolor square in red white and black in the same order of colors of the modern flag of Egypt.
That is not stated in the constitution, but neither are any other meanings or associations stated and the impossible "coincidence" of the colors of the flag of egypt's renaissance having the same design as its royal symbol during ancient times, red and white referring to the north and south kingdoms and black referring to the name of the land as the Black Land (Kemt), just seems to be too impossible a coincidence to believe it was simply that. The inclusion of Arab in the official name of egypt, and the addition of its description of Arabic as its oficial language happened one decade for the former and two decades for the latter, AFTER the establishment of the egyptian republic and the adoption (or re-adoption rether) of egyptian colors.
With the establishment of the Renaissance socialist party in egypt; Renaissance socialist parties in other countries followed and made their revolts on their monarchies, adopting the renaissance colors which happened to be the egyptian colors. That is why Iraq, syria, libya and northern Yemen adopted sopcialist renaissance designs to replace their monarchic arab revolt designs.
The two movements came to direct war and confrontation in Yemen.
Side note: The stars and the symbols or lack thereof represented the joining of the socialist republics league with one star for libya, two for syria, three for iraq and none for yemen, with egypt retaining its Saladin Eagle symbol that it used before starting the socialist renaissance pan-arab movement.
Needless to say; the entirety of the flags of north african countries have nothing to do with the arab revolt colors, and neither do Saudi arabia (officially the Saudi kingdom of arabia in arabi or kingdom saudi arabia in english) because it took power from the Hashim family which started with the brits the whole arab revolt flag thing (the Hashimite kingdom of jordan was supposed to have a sister nation in the Hashimite kingdom of Iraq, using the same flag designs with one having two star and the other two as one was ruled by the first born and the other the second born of the Hashims.
Summary: the renaissance design (refered to as pan-arab design in the west) is not only different but opposite to the arab revolt design, the pan arab movement came around the late fifties to early sixties, and used the egyptian colors that were independently adopted in the early fifties but became the colors of the renaissance socialist republican movement afterwards, all of north africa, saudi arabia, bahrain and qatar have nothing to do with either of movements regarding the design of their flags; with libya replacing their egyptian colors with an all green after the egyptian-libyan border skirmish in the late seventies, and with egypt basing its flag in the fifties on its ancient symbol and later adopting it for its pan-arabic stunt for the leadership and control of the MENA region in the sixties.
This is not true. Every flag of an Arab country has its own meanings, for example, Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan, Kuwait and the Emirates. The red color does not refer to the Hashemites, it refers to the blood of the martyrs, black to mourning, and white to goodness. As for Jordan, for example, red refers to revolution, black to the Abbasid state, and white to the Umayyad state. And green to the Fatimid state.
@@sufianS5 that's the bulshit that countries with egyptian flag design told its citizens afterwards.
Iraq and libya and Yemen had all three colors in their old flags before their association with the egyptian republican movement, why did they change their different flags that already contained those three basic colors to an egyptian republican design, if it was for these made up meanings?

The flags of the nations of the Malay archipelago too would have been almost similar. The red and white seem to be the preferred colour of those nations. Indonesia and Singapore have similar colours, red top and white bottom. The flag of Malaysia too would have been the same but in a political struggle the left wing lost to the monarchists and thus the red and white flag was dropped from Malaysia's colours in favour of a flag similar to the Star Spangled Banner. Brunei would have had a similar flag too had the left wing politics held sway. The Borneo states of Sabah & Sarawak too adopted the red and white with an added blue in the 1970s but were later changed. Overall the flags of all Southeast Asian nations are red, white and blue except for Brunei and Vietnam.
People are forgetting there are only so many colors to use anyways.
The UK, Australia, France, US, Cambodia, Nepal, Malaysia... so many use red, white, and blue beyond just pan-Slavic nations (many of whom like Bulgaria do not use these combos).
3 primary colors. 3 secondary. And then 2 shades, white and black. Not a single nation's flag uses brown or grey as a main color. Tertiary and intermediate colors are also basically never used. No national flag uses pink or purple as a main color. There's only like 10 nations that use orange as a main color. So yes, most flags are actually quite similar color-scheme wise since only so many colors are actually used.
There was history how star spangled banner originate.. all its back to south east asian Majapahit empire..

I always thought Libya used those colours as Pan-African colours but I'm not sure anymore
Why would they, Libya is one of the most Arab nationalistic countries of the Arab World, it's no surprise they use Pan Arab colors in their flag.
As explained by a Libyan friend: in Libya black is for Cyrenaica, green for Tripolitania, and red for Fezzan, which are the traditional Lybian regions and were originally united upon independence as a federation, based on colours ¿a bit randomly? taken form preëxisting symbols of each one. Cyrenaica appears bigger as its king was the unifier and who became king of the united Lybia.

Funny thing is most coutries in Europe have way more similar flags, three colors in even stripes. Arab coutries chose the same colors, but the geometry and other elements is clearly more distinct. We just kind of learn that some elements are the good ones, make legit diferences in a flag, and become blind to all the rest. So wierd. One of my favorite flags is of Pernambuco, indeed an original flag, looks like something in between a contemporary piece and a sketch from a nine year old, hard to believe it's even a flag at all. But I apreciate a lot the element of post colonial fraternity represented by the same choice of colors. The brazilian flag, maybe because it was made in a decolonization process more than 100 years before most os the arabs, show the colors of the crown of the Habsburg, Orleans and Bragança. I find that so disrespectfull it is borderline mockery.
the guy just erased half of Palestine, this a jewish sheel rant
The short answer for the Pan-Slavic colors is that it were introduced by the Prague Slavic Congress of 1848, based the colors of Russia. Since the Russia flag starting appearing around Peter the Great's reign, most believe it is connected to his love of the Dutch and their shipbuilding, and the Netherlands flag has its own story.

One thing I find interesting about the Egyptian flag (whether it was intentional or not) is that historically Egypt was a union of two kingdoms, the Delta Egyptians of Lower Egypt who were hieroglyphed as red skinned, and the Nubians of Upper Egypt who were hieroglyphed as black skinned. The Egyptian tricolour shows the red band at the top (or north) of the flag where the "red skinned" Delta Egyptians were, and the black band at the bottom (or south) of the flag where the "black skinned" Nubians were, with a white band separating them which (at least by European standards) typically refers to peace or unity (similar to how in the Irish flag shows the Catholics (green) separated from the Protestants (orange) by a white stripe). Additionally, the crown of the two kingdoms was red and white, an amalgamation of the red crown of Lower (Northern) Egypt, and the white crown of Upper (Southern) Egypt. A third possible reasoning behind the order and choice of colours was that Egypt, particularly the Nile and Delta regions was regarded as "black land" due to its comparatively dark and fertile soil to the surrounding area, so you could have Red for the northern kingdom, which above white for the southern kingdom, which is above black for the ground. I have no idea if this much thought went into making it, but its absolutely fascinating how it so easily links into so much of Egypt's history using only three simply colours
I’m Egyptian. The upper ancient Egyptians weren’t depicted as black skinned. The red colour refers to the blood of the martyrs, and you are correct on your second point, the black refers to our fertile soil.
@@Rawan_unfilteredI’m Coptic Egyptian ppl in Aswan and Luxor are black Egyptians ppl in Cairo which my family is from is more middle eastern Arab looking facts
@@Rawan_unfiltered they are red and black skinned as per the hieroglyphics. Hieroglyphics for people showed Nubians (whom were of Upper Egypt) as black "On the other hand, black is associated with
chaos and enemies, so the men to the south of Egypt (Nubians) were depicted by
black skin."[1], Lower Egyptians as red and women as yellow (there are several archaeological finds regarding this as well as academic articles) the reasoning for why those colours were chosen is conjecture, but may stem from artistic representation of skin colours, or the other mentioned points of fertile soil and blood of martyrs.
