Pakistan Flag And Its History

By Janet Long


Pakistan is a nation in South Asia and is formally called the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The flag of Pakistan comprises of a green field and in the center is a symbol of a white crescent moon and a five-pointed star. There are vertical white bands positioned at the hoist side of the flag.

The Pakistan flag was adopted on August 14, 1947, when the country was formed after the British-ruled Indian sub-continent was divided into two independent states, Pakistan, and India. The Pakistan flag is based on one created in 1906; which represented the All-Indian Muslim League - a political organization established to represent the political rights of Muslims in India. That flag had an entirely green base with a white crescent and star in the center.

The flag of Pakistan is known by the name Parcham-e-Sit?ra-o-Hil?l, meaning the flag of the crescent and star. The flag is dark green, with a vertical white bar taking up a quarter of the flag on the hoist side. A white crescent moon and five-pointed star are centered on the green field.

The flag of Pakistan consists of a dark green background with a white vertical stripe on the left side of it. In the center of the green base lie a white crescent and a five-pointed white star. Green is a traditional Islamic color and the crescent and star are also Islamic symbols.

The flag bears the country’s religious faith to Islam, to the Islamic community and the rights of the religious minorities as well. The flag’s design being grounded on the flag of the Muslim League also bears some resemblance and insight from the banner of the Sultanate of Delhi and emblem used by the Mughal Empire.

There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Pakistan flags being imported and sold, that do not comply with the flag statute. This is bad for a number of reasons. Imported flags are cheaply made and more importantly, the designs, materials, colors, and methods of printing do not compare well with the better quality, longer-lasting, and correctly designed flags. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Pakistan flag for the future.
