Flag of Jordan
The flag of Jordan, officially adopted on 16 April 1928, is based on the 1916 flag of the Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Empire during World War I.[1] The flag consists of horizontal black, white, and green bands that are connected by a red chevron.The red chevron represents the Hashemite dynasty, and the Arab Revolt.The star stands for the unity of the Arab people;[4] its seven points refer to the seven verses of Al-Fatiha.Notice that, given the proportions of height and width of the red chevron, its sides are coincident with the diagonals of the flag.
