Green for the Muslim majority, a white stripe on the hoist side for minority communities, and a crescent and star for progress and light, Pakistan's flag was adopted by the Constituent Assembly in August 1947, right alongside the country itself. It comes out for Independence Day, a cricket win, and diaspora pride posts everywhere.
What 🇵🇰 means
