Proportions are stated by W.Smith as aproximatelly
21:38, whatever that would mean. Colours are interpreted as: white -
peace, blue - sea and sky, green - earth. Red star is for unity.
Flag was used since 1972 by African National Liberation Union (?), and
then the colours where interpreted differently. Green was for Afar
muslims, and blue for Issas (also muslims) joined with Somalia.
The flag was officially hoisted on 27-JUN-1977.
