Afghanistan Flag History

By Nichole Patterson


The current Afghanistan flag is contained three solid colors such as black, red and green and each color represents a different page in the history of Afghanistan.

The black means the nineteenth century time when Afghanistan was occupied and did not have independence. The red means fights for independence and the green means the freedom achieved in the future. This three-stripe banner was outlined by King Amanullah Khan after he came back from a visit of Europe in 1928.

Afghanistan flag is made of equal three stripe colors with an emblem in the middle of the red stripe in white color. There are two wheat branches on each side of the and on top of the wheat branches, there is the declaration of Shahdah ( Muslim's faith declaration) which means There is no god but Allah and Mohammad is his prophet.

The two branches of wheat on Afghanistan flag emblem comes from the time of the legend. During the Aryan Empire, King Yamah and the founder of Afghanistan Ahmad Shah Durani was crowned with it for the first time as a symbol of bravery.

Afghanistan pennant has been changed a couple times as the image of Afghan standard, from the kingdom of Amir Habibullah Khan 1901 to the last or current flag of Afghanistan. Habibullah Khan ruled Afghanistan from 1901 until his death in 1919. The flag of Afghanistan at his kingdom from 1901 until 1919 had a black foundation with a symbol in white shading in the center. The black foundation flag identifies with the dim page of the history and the freedom Afghanistan.

The story of Afghanistan is in so many ways a very tragic one. Afghanistan is one of the most impoverished nations of the world. It is one of the most war-torn, most ravaged, and most beleaguered of nations. It is a nation that has been beset by invasion, external pressure and internal upheaval since before the time of Alexander the Great. Its people are a people who have endured more than most of us can ever imagine. Flag Company Inc decided to assist with the history development by providing special decals and banners to make it easy to build a bit of university right at home.
