What the Colors Mean
Flag History
Descends from the 1959 flag of the short-lived Mali Federation with Senegal: the French tricolor layout in pan-African colors, bearing a black kanaga human figure at its centre. After the federation collapsed, Mali removed the figure in March 1961, partly because depicting the human form drew objections in the overwhelmingly Muslim country. Senegal replaced the same figure with a green star.
