ZANZIBAR unveiled its new flag on January 9, which is said to be a symbol of unity for the island. Zanzibar is the semi-autonomous island state of Tanzania and the introduction of the new flag comes after forty years of being a part of the United Republic of Tanzania, when the island merged with Tanganyika in 1964. The flag represents the island’s growing independence from mainland Tanzania. The flag is made up of green, gold, blue and black and its introduction is part of events to celebrate the anniversary of the Zanzibar Revolution on January 12. (Darren Sandras)
