The national
flag of Liberia was officially adopted on the 24th of August 1847
and was designed by a group of seven women. It closely resembles the flag of
the United States of America, as the nation was colonised by the Americans, who
believed that slaves should be assisted in returning to Africa. The flag
consists of 11 horizontal stripes of alternating red and white colouring; the
11 stripes symbolise the 11 men that signed Liberian’s Declaration of
Independence. The red represents courage, white portrays purity and blue is
said to depict loyalty and the continent of Africa. The lone white star is
representative of the nation being the first and oldest republic of Africa.
Liberia is a
nation located on Africa’s west coast. Its coastlines are lined by the Atlantic
Ocean. To the northwest of the nation is Sierra Leone, to the north the nation
of Guinea and to the east is Ivory Coast. It is 97,081km2 in area
and home to around 5.8 million people. The official language of Liberia is
English. The capital city of Monrovia is named after the American president
James Monroe, who was a large supporter of returning slaves back to Africa.
Liberia’s president from 2018 to 2024, George Weah, was previously a
professional football player, playing for Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and AC
Milan. He also won a Ballon d’Or and a FIFA World Player of the Year award,
during his football career. The large rainforests that cover Liberia are home
to over 700 species of bird, and plenty of reptile, amphibian and mammal
species as well.
