The flag of Morocco consists of a red field with a green five-pointed star in the center, known as the Seal of Solomon. Red symbolizes strength, valor, and the historical significance of the ruling Alaouite dynasty, which has ruled Morocco for centuries. Green represents Islam, peace, and the connection to the royal family’s religious roots. The five-pointed star, or pentagram, is also a symbol of the five pillars of Islam. The flag was officially adopted on November 17, 1956, after Morocco gained independence from France. The colors and symbols are deeply rooted in Moroccan history and its Islamic identity.
