Senegal at a glance: its flag, its capital Dakar, its population and where it sits on the world map. Plus a way to test yourself afterwards.
Inherited from the flag of the Mali Federation, which Senegal left in 1960, it keeps the three vertical green, yellow and red bands and replaces the central human figure with a green five-pointed star.
Green stands for hope and for the country’s religions, yellow for wealth and labour, red for the blood shed and for the laterite soil.
