Suriname's flag symbolizes the concepts of ethnic unity, progress and love, hope and fertility, and peace and justice. Its flag has five horizontal divisions.
One, the green bands in the top and bottom sections symbolize hope and fertility.
Two, the white bands in the second and fourth sections symbolize peace and justice.
Three, the third section has a large, yellow, five-pointed star centered on a red background.
Red represents progress and love. The star symbolizes the unity of all ethnic groups. The red section is the largest and is four times the width of each green section. Each white band is half the width of each green section.
Historical symbolism is the reason for the choice of colors for Suriname's flag.
Specifically, the green of the two bands, one at the top and the other on the bottom, honors the fertility of the land the hope of the people. The red band in the middle represents for the love of the people and the progress of the nation. The white of the two stripes, one at the top of the red band and the other at the bottom, stands for the justice and peaceful intents of the government. The yellow of the star, in the center of the flag's red central band, symbolizes the unity of Suriname's diverse cultural groups.

The coat of arms with national motto, flag, national anthem, and national flower are included among Suriname's national symbols.
The coat of arms was adopted on Independence Day, November 25, 1975. Two natives carry a shield. A ship on the left half of the shield symbolizes the past with the transport of slaves from Africa. A palm on the right half symbolizes a just person. A diamond in the middle symbolizes the heart as the organ of love. The four points of the diamond represent the wind's four main directions. A five-pointed star inside the diamond symbolizes the five continents from which the Surinamese people originate: Africa, America, Australia, Asia, Europe.
At the bottom of the coat of arms is the national motto. It's 'Justitia Pietas Fides, which means 'Justice Duty Loyalty' in Latin.

The title of the national anthem is 'God zijn met ons Suriname' ['God be with our Suriname']. The music was composed in 1876 by Johannes Corstianus de Puy [1835-1924]. Originally one stanza of lyrics in Dutch was written by Cornelis Atses Hoekstra [1852-1911]. The Dutch lyrics were composed in 1893. Later a second stanza was written in Sranan Tongo [Surinamese creole language] by Henry de Ziel [1916-1975].
Suriname's national flower is known as the parakeet flower or parrot's beak [Heliconia psittacorum]. In Sranan Tongo, the Surinamese creole language, it's called 'popokai tongo'. In Surinamese Dutch, it's called 'papegaaietong' or 'papegaybek'. In Surinamese Carib, it's called 'kulewako anuru'. In Suriname it's pollinated by hummingbirds.
