East Timorese Flag Vector
The flag of East Timor, a vibrant tapestry of red, yellow, black, and white, proudly displays the nation's rich heritage, its unwavering commitment to peace and unity, and the enduring spirit of its people. The deep red background represents the blood shed in the struggle for independence from Portuguese and Indonesian rule, the courage and determination of the East Timorese people, and the unifying force of love and unity. A radiant yellow star at the center of the flag signifies hope, optimism, and the nation's unwavering pursuit of a prosperous future. Nestled at the center of the star is a black triangle, symbolizing the strength and resilience of the East Timorese people, their deep connection to the land, and their unwavering commitment to national unity. Two radiant white stripes, one on each side of the triangle, symbolize peace, harmony, and the nation's unwavering commitment to democracy and progress. Adopted in 1999, following East Timor's declaration of independence, the flag serves as a unifying emblem of national pride, reminding its citizens of their shared heritage, their unwavering commitment to peace, unity, and progress, and their deep connection to the land that nourishes them.
