The national flag of the Union of the Comoros was designed in 2001 and officially adopted on 23 December of that year.[1][2][3] It continues to display the crescent and four stars, which is a motif that has been in use in various forms since 1975 during the independence movement.[4] In its constitution, the government of the Comoros refers to the insignia as l'emblème national, or the "national emblem", though it is understood to actually represent a flag.[3]
