Flag of south Africa

The flag of the Republic of South Africa was adopted on 27 April 1994, at the beginningof the 1994 general election, to replace the flag that had been used since 1928. The new

national flag, designed by State Herald Frederick Brownell, was chosen to represent the new

democracy.

Three of the colours black, green and yellow are found in the flag of the African National

Congress. The other three red, white and blue are used in the old Flag of Transvaal, themodern flag of the Netherlands and the flag of the United Kingdom; the colours white and blue

were also found in the old flag of South Africa. Former South African President F.W. de Klerk,

who proclaimed the new flag on 20 April 1994,[1] stated in his autobiography, The Last Trek: a

New Beginning, that chilli red was chosen instead of plain red (which Anglo-Africans would have

preferred) or orange (as Afrikaners would have preferred).
