The colours of the Flag of Burundi represent a desire for peace. It was adopted upon Independence in 1962 with a Plant and a Drum in it's centre. These symbols of the ruling monarchy were dropped in 1967 when the monarchy was overthrown. The three red stars bordered in green inside a white circle represent the words of the national motto...Unity,work,Progress. Flag Ratio 2:3  |

To coincide with the Queen's State Visit to Ethiopia in February 1965, a stamp was issued depicting Her Majesty and The Emperor Haille Selassie against a backdrop on their nations flags. The stamp was printed by Courvoisier, the famous Swiss printing firm [now a part of Walsall Security Printers].  |
