What the Colors Mean
Flag History
Designed by American vexillologist Whitney Smith, who submitted the concept before independence. Britain's College of Arms adjusted it for adoption on 26 May 1966, swapping the red and green areas and adding the black and white borders. It is nicknamed 'The Golden Arrowhead'.
✨ Did you know?
Its designer Whitney Smith literally coined the word 'vexillology' — so Guyana flies a flag made by the founding father of flag studies.
Unicode sequence for 🇬🇾
