    All the countries in the world have their national flag and the colors and symbols in this national flag show the status of these countries. Similarly, the Somali flag is known to feature a single white star on a blue field, the blue field being a symbol of unity. This symbol represents unity and solidarity between the people of Africa and Somalia. While the blue part indicates the sky and the Indian Ocean. In Somalia, the Ogaden region of Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya’s northern border region, the diaspora, the five-pointed star on the blue surface of the flag indicates Somali-populated areas. This flag symbolizes overall national unity, solidarity, and peace. This flag is a symbol of pride and independence for Somalia.

In addition, this blue part in the Somali flag also represents the Indian Ocean because the Indian Ocean geographically connects Somalia with other countries in terms of trade.

    Significance of the Five Points

    The blue part of the Somali flag features a five-pointed star. These five points of the Somali flag include different features. Each of its points is matched to the people living in a particular region of Somalia and their population.
