Designed by the renowned artist Theodosia Okoh, this flag was hoisted for the first time in 1957 to mark Ghana's historic independence from British rule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach color carries the weight of a nation’s journey. The \u003cb\u003etop red stripe\u003c\/b\u003e honors the blood of those who died in the struggle for independence. The \u003cb\u003emiddle gold stripe\u003c\/b\u003e represents the mineral wealth of the country—a nod to the former \"Gold Coast\"—while the \u003cb\u003ebottom green stripe\u003c\/b\u003e symbolizes Ghana’s rich forests and natural bounty.

It remains a historic symbol of strength and leadership, representing a nation that continues to be a beacon of democracy and cultural influence across the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flags For Good","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47655887765749,"sku":"GHANA","price":36.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0401\/1373\/3790\/files\/Ghana-flag.jpg?v=1772132231","url":"https:\/\/flagsforgood.ca\/products\/ghana-flag","provider":"Flags For Good","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
