## Central Equatoria State

It appears this flag was very briefly used in 2011. It had the same format as all of the other state flags of the time: a white field with the state emblem in the center having underneath the state name (CENTRAL EQUATORIA). The state emblem was a green disc with a rhinoceros in the center.

Central Equatoria is the smallest of the ten states which make up South Sudan. According to Wikipedia, it was formerly named Bahr al Jaba after a tributary of the the White Nile that flows through the state. It was re-named Central Equatoria on 01 April 2005. Juba, the capital city of South Sudan, is also the state capital of Central Equatoria.

After some searching, I'm sure that Central Equatoria state has changed its flag. The new flag is green with white circle with state emblem, a rhinoceros, within and words "CENTRAL EQUATORIA above the emblem and STATE below. Photographs show the rhino facing left, while in others it faces right with no lettering.

Previously the state flag had the state emblem in the centre of a white background.
