What the Colors Mean
Flag History
Taken almost directly from the banner of the MLSTP, the movement that negotiated independence from Portugal in July 1975, and written into the constitution that November. It adopts the pan-African green, yellow and red popularised by Ghana.
✨ Did you know?
The two black stars are the country itself — one for Sao Tome, one for Principe — and the cocoa-gold band recalls the era around 1900 when this tiny two-island nation was the world's largest cocoa producer.
