Countries with Green, White & Red Flags 2026

Flag	Country	Notes	Details
	Italy	Three vertical bands	Three equal vertical bands of green (hoist), white, and red. The tricolore was inspired by the French Tricolour during Napoleon's Italian campaigns; green was chosen partly for the colour of the Milan civic guard's uniforms.
	Mexico	Coat of arms on white	Three equal vertical bands of green (hoist), white, and red. The white band bears the national coat of arms depicting an eagle devouring a serpent while perched on a cactus — rooted in the Aztec founding legend of Tenochtitlan.
	Iran	Emblem & Allah script	Three equal horizontal bands of green (top), white, and red. The shared border of each band is decorated with the phrase 'Allahu Akbar' in Kufic script (22 times total), and the white band bears a stylised red emblem representing Allah.
	Bangladesh	Red disc on green	Dark green field bearing a large red disc positioned slightly toward the hoist to appear centred when the flag is flying. The green represents the lush landscape of Bangladesh; the red disc symbolises the rising sun and the blood of independence.
	Uganda	Six bands + crested crane	Six equal horizontal bands alternating black, yellow, and red (repeated twice), with a white disc at the centre bearing a grey crowned crane — Uganda's national bird — facing the hoist.
	Algeria	Crescent & star	Two equal vertical bands of green (hoist) and white. At the centre sits a red crescent partially enclosing a red five-pointed star — symbols of Islam that have been associated with Algeria since the Ottoman period.
	Hungary	Three horizontal bands	Three equal horizontal bands of red (top), white, and green. These colours have been associated with Hungary since the 15th century and were adopted as the national tricolour during the Revolution of 1848.
	Bulgaria	Three horizontal bands	Three equal horizontal bands of white (top), green, and red. The design is based on the Russian tricolour with green substituted for blue, adopted after Bulgaria gained autonomy from the Ottoman Empire in 1878.
	Oman	Red, white & green bands	Three equal horizontal bands of white (top), red, and green, with a vertical red band on the hoist side. The national emblem — two crossed swords and a curved dagger (khanjar) — is placed in the upper-left corner.
	Maldives	White crescent on green	Red field with a large green rectangle at the centre bearing a white crescent moon. The red represents the blood of national heroes; green symbolises life and prosperity; the white crescent stands for peace and the Islamic faith.
	Benin	Green hoist, yellow & red	A green vertical band on the hoist side, with two horizontal bands of yellow (top) and red on the fly side. The Pan-African colours reflect Benin's belonging to the community of African nations.
	Guinea	Three vertical bands	Three equal vertical bands of red (hoist), yellow, and green. The Pan-African tricolour is identical in arrangement to the French Tricolour but uses the colours of the Ethiopian flag, reversed in order.
	Côte d'Ivoire	Inverse of Irish flag	Three equal vertical bands of orange (hoist), white, and green. Visually the mirror image of the Irish flag; orange represents the northern savannah, white symbolises peace, and green stands for the forests and hope.
	Ireland	Three vertical bands	Three equal vertical bands of green (hoist), white, and orange. The green represents the Gaelic tradition; the orange represents the followers of William of Orange; and the white symbolises lasting peace between the two traditions.
	Mauritania	Red bands top & bottom	Green field with a gold crescent and gold five-pointed star at the centre; red horizontal bands were added at the top and bottom in 2017 to represent the blood shed defending the nation.
	Guinea-Bissau	Vertical red band + star	A black five-pointed star on a vertical red band at the hoist, with two horizontal bands of yellow (top) and green on the fly side. The star represents African unity; the colours are the Pan-African tricolour.
