Liberian Flag and Seal
 |
The Flag The Liberia flag was officially adopted on July 26, 1847. The flag of Liberia bears close resemblance to that of the United States. The flag of Liberia has the same red and white stripes and a blue square with a white star at the corner like that of U.S.A.. The white star symbolizes the freedom that the ex-slaves were given and the blue square stands for the African mainland. The eleven stripes on theflag of Liberia represent the eleven signatories of the Liberian Declaration of Independence. The colors red and white symbolizes the courage and moral excellence of these signatories. |

The Seal The symbols of the seal are obvious: a peace-bringing bird, the dove, arrives with a message from overseas (the United States), the granting of independence. The ship represents the arrival of the colonists, as does the national motto: Details from theLiberiapastandpresent.org |
