## Eastern Equatoria State

The flag of Eastern Equatoria state comprises four horizontal stripes of yellow, black and red with the state emblem or logo in the centre. The yellow symbolises the state's rich mineral resources, while black represents the African inhabitants and red symbolises the bloodshed during the liberation struggle. The green within the central oval emblem represents vegetation and agriculture. The cheetah, described as "gently moving" symbolises the rate of development and the nature of the people of Eastern Equatoria who are always organised and quick to respond - taken from this source.
