The three colours probably represent these: red = the blood of their civilians killed in war and colonialism; green = their hopefully bright future and the environment; yellow = the rising sun of hope for the nation. But these three colours were adopted from the national flag of Ethiopia, because Ethiopia was one of only two countries not under the influence of foreign powers during the Scramble for Africa, and because it is one of the most African countries, having one of the longest recorded histories and being the most likely birthplace of humanity.
