Description from the seller
Special historical flag from Rwanda, used as the national flag from 1962 to 2001. The flag consists of three vertical bands in red, yellow and green, with in the middle of the yellow band a large black letter “R”.
This flag was introduced at Rwanda's independence in 1962 and remained in use until 2001, when Rwanda adopted a new national flag. The letter “R” was added to distinguish the flag from the Ethiopian flag and referred to the name Rwanda.
