Chad Flag History

By Carol Stone


Dominated historically by slave-trading Arab Muslims from the northern regions, Chad is primarily an agricultural nation with over 80% of the population living at subsistence level. Its recent history was shaped when the French began taking an interest in central and western Africa in the 1900s. By 1913 the country was fully colonised: sadly the new rulers didn’t really know what to do with their conquest, and investment all but dried up after a few years, leaving much of the territory almost entirely undeveloped.

Chad was finally granted independence on 11 August 1960, and the flag of Chad flew over the new nation. Chad has continuously had armed insurrection, civil war, and national rebellion. As the civil war grew even stronger, the French military intervened. Even with the French help, there was division among the rebels.

The flag of Chad is the flag of the fifth largest country in Africa. Because to archeological findings thereof the oldest known human remains, of a gentleman now called Abel, it is thought that Chad may be one of the first areas with human inhabitants.

The banner that flies over this nation is a tricolor banner of blue, yellow, and red equivalent estimated vertical standards. The blue-yellow-red hues used as a part of the banner of Chad gives a blend of their recorded past. Chad's 1962 constitution alludes to the banner of Chad's hues being blue, gold, and red.

The importance of the blue shading is the sky, trust, farming, and the waters in the south part of the nation. The yellow, or gold, shading on the banner of Chad speaks of the sun, and the dry desert, which is in the northern part of the nation. The red shading on the banner of Chad speaks of the nation's promise for advancement, solidarity, and penance.

The Chad Air Force uses a roundel which has a blue circle in the center. It is surrounded by a band of yellow and then a band of red, which are equal in width. The roundel was first used in the 1960's. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Chad flag for the future.
