About the flag
The black triangle holds a curled boar’s tusk, a symbol of prosperity, with two crossed namele fern leaves, a symbol of peace. The yellow Y echoes the shape of the island chain.
How to spot it: Red over green with a black triangle and a black-edged yellow Y lying on its side; South Africa’s Y is green and it has no tusk emblem.
