The nation’s flag gives a simple, methodical and shrewd view of the archipelago’s natural beauty and the character of its inhabitants. The vertical blue stripe reflects the sky and the extreme richness of the archipelago’s surrounding seas. The central yellow band symbolises the sun, inexhaustible source of warmth and life. The green band represents the land’s fertility and the love of its people for its rich soil. Three green lozenges are shaped in a V for St. Vincent, and reflect the plural nature of the thirty two islands of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
