Dark green field with a red disc offset slightly toward the hoist. Green for the lush Bangladeshi countryside and Islam; the red disc represents the sun rising over Bengal and the blood spilled in the 1971 Liberation War. Adopted on January 17, 1972 — three weeks after independence. The disc was offset so it would appear centred when the flag was flying. Practise the Bangladesh flag in the Flagzio Asia flag quiz across all eight game modes.
