Hey all,
Lets have little fun competition of designing new flags. Let our imaginations run wild and try to come up with a flag(s) that are both simple in design and also symbolically relevant to our land.
Give it a go.

Okay I made this flag,
all credit goes to me if y'all wanna use it and stuff. So don't forget -it was DonCorleone capiche?
Okay the green for Djibouti, the black for somaliland, the blue for somalia.
Or alternatively, Green for the land, Blue for the Ocean, Black for the oil
The star is the 5 regions united (duh!)
,and the red color of the star is to never forget
the blood shed from / and all the somalis that died in all the wars we had, and the famines, and the refugees, and the droughts, and the ones killed, and orphans etc.
and how we will never forget them or their contribution to somalia and that we are ONE PEOPLE.
Rate my flag.
I wanted to make an eagle on it, but Egypt already took it.

It's not a joke there were 2 divisions in the SNM, and they were both called Makka and Medina.

Incorrect, it existed before SNM even decided to re-declare Somaliland, the current flag , was created somewhere in the 80's, this white flag was the flag of one of snm's 2 divisions. You can't tell me i'm wrong on this one, my father and grandfather were SNM.

you are wrong, it was a somaliland flag when it was declared in 1991 as for this current flag no it was designed in the mid 90s and then chosen in 1993.

What flag was raised in Burco in 1991? the green white and red? or the one you claim that was the national Somaliland flag,
This flag was the flag the modern SL flag came from
The white flag and the other one represented two divisions in the SNM.

It's very eye catchy. but two things, one is the star is too big.
and you picked the color black to represent somaliland. why?
cumar labasuul; you're wrong and abuukar is right. now if you two stopped arguing and start designing flag please.
