The flag of Madagascar was adopted on October 14, 1958, two years before independence, as Madagascar prepared for a referendum on its status in the French Community. The colors of the Madagascar flag represent the country's history, yearning for independence, and traditional classes. Red and white were the colors of the Merina kingdom, which succumbed to France in 1896. Green was the color of the Hova, the prominent class of peasant commoners, that played an important role in anti-French agitation and the independence movement.
