The Lao flag consists of three stripes of red and blue with a white circle in the centre. It is one of the few Communist flags that does not use the five-pointed star as an emblem.
The red stripes represent the blood shed in the country's fight for independence. The blue stands for Laos' wealth and prosperity and the white symbolises unity and justice. Another interpretation of the Laotian flag states the white circle relates to the full moon over the blue Mekong River, which runs through and alongside the majority of Laos.
The flag is hoisted when the Laotians celebrate their National Day on December 2nd.
