The flag of Libya consists of a green field with no other characteristics. It is the only national flag in the world with just one color and no design, insignia, or other details.
On March 8, 1977 Libya’s official name was changed to: Al-Jamahiriya al-Arabiya al-Libiya ash-Sha`biya al-Ishtirakiya (the Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya), and on November 11, 1977 the flag was changed to the current all-green design in reaction to Anwar Sadat’s (President of Egypt) visit to Israel.
Green reflects the people’s devotion to Islam, and is also the national color of Libya.
