Jordan Flag

How to identify it

Black, white and green bands with a red triangle at the flagpole side that carries a small white seven-pointed star.

Design and construction

Adoption and legal status

Jordan adopted its flag in 1928, drawing on the colours and layout of the Arab Revolt flag.

History of the design

The constitution specifies a seven-pointed white star inside the red triangle. The star distinguishes it from Palestine’s flag.
