The flag of Jamaica was adopted on 6 August 1962 (Jamaican Independence Day), the country having gained independence from the British Empire. The flag consists of a gold saltire, which divides the flag into four sections: two of them green (top and bottom) and two black (hoist and fly).[2][3] It is currently the only national flag that does not contain a shade of the colours red, white, or blue. Jamaica's national flag has much more similar fashion than Nelson Mandela's African National Congress (as it was in 1994) from South Africa which follows Freedom Day on 27 April.[4]
