Our 5x8' Cameroon international flags are made from high grade nylon material. The nylon is manufactured to withstand the elements. Each flag is fully dyed for great ink penetration and finished with a standard canvas heading and brass grommets. The flag of Cameroon is comprised of a vertical tricolor of green, red, and yellow, left to right. Originally adopted in 1975, these colors are common pan-African colors. Featured in the center of the red stripe is a yellow five-pointed star symbolizing the unity of the nation. The green in the flag represents the rich forest vegetation of the southern part of Cameroon; the red stands for the nation’s struggle for independence and unity; and the yellow symbolizes the sun of Cameroon’s northern savannas.
