Lesotho

Lesotho 3x5' nylon flag, heading tape and grommets.

The flag of Lesotho is a proud emblem of peace, identity, and unity—a striking symbol of a resilient African kingdom perched high in the mountains.

This beautiful flag features three horizontal stripes: blue, white, and green. At the center of the white band stands a bold, black Mokorotlo, the traditional Basotho hat, which symbolizes the enduring culture and independence of the Basotho people.

• The blue stripe at the top represents the sky and rain—vital elements for a nation whose lifeblood is agriculture.
• The white middle stripe radiates peace, reflecting the nation’s deep-rooted commitment to harmony and diplomacy.
• The green stripe at the bottom celebrates prosperity and the land, acknowledging Lesotho’s fertile valleys and natural beauty.

Adopted in 2006 to mark 40 years of independence, this modern flag replaced the old military-influenced design with one that expresses peace over power, and unity over division.

Displaying the Lesotho flag is a tribute to a proud, sovereign mountain kingdom that stands tall and dignified. Fly it with honor—and carry the spirit of “Khotso, Pula, Nala” (Peace, Rain, Prosperity) wherever you go.
