My personal project


Being adopted in 1971, the flag of Namibia consists of diagonal disposed colour stripes that are taken from SWAPO, a Namibian movement for the liberation of the people and the democratic Namibian party.Main facts and history of Namibia flag are that this flag has a wide nationally accepted significance: blue represents the clear sky and the water resources, green stands for agriculture, red is the symbol of Namibian people and finally, white is the colour of peace. Besides the colour stripes, there is another symbol on the Namibian flag: the sun that represents the energy power and life.The National Flag is a symbol of our struggle for national unity.
The Legislative Assembly, consisting of all political forces of the country, passed on 9 November, 1990 unanimously Namibia's democratic constitution. It grants the citizens comprehensive civil rights and the equality of all Namibians before the law, which marked the biggest progress compared to the past. Also freedom of speech, religion, assembly and association, protection of privacy and personal property as well as the right to freedom and physical integrity were legally established. Politically, Namibia became a secular presidential democracy with a multi-party system and the classical division of powers between the legislative, executive and jurisdictional bodies.
