Guadeloupe Flag GIF (Drapeau de la Guadeloupe)



The flag of Guadeloupe (French: Drapeau de la Guadeloupe) features a yellow sun and a green sugar cane on a black (or red) background and a blue stripe charged with three yellow stylized lilies on top. Sugarcane has long been one of the archipelago's main economic resources, and the sun refers to climatic conditions. The black background symbolizes the black continent and the African foundation of the population of Guadeloupe. Stylized lilies are a historical reference to the attachment of Guadeloupe to the royal domain. The height-to-width ratio of the flag is 2:3. In addition, the national flag of France is officially used instead of this flag.

Guadeloupe is an archipelago in the Caribbean and a French department and territory overseas. It has no capital city, and its population is approximately 375,693 (2021).
