The original flag of Afghanistan featured an all-black design. During the 20th century, emblems were added to the flag. It was in 1928 when the colors of black, red, green and white were used, although this flag was not used for long before being changed to reflect a new seal. The flags continued to change after every few years, with many just being put in use for just a year. The current flag was designated as the national flag of Afghanistan in 2013.

Afghanistan’s flag has a very interesting design that has deep symbolism behind it. The colors of the flag are representative of different traits and the history of Afghanistan, including the blood shed in the fight for independence, prosperity and religion, and the nation’s troubled past. The national flag also features the national emblem that represents Islam and features the Arabic inscription of the Muslim creed and the Takbir – the Arabic expression, “God is great.”
