What country does this flag represent?

The Flag of Nigeria is in the picture. Designed in 1959, it was first officially used and hoisted on the 1st of October, 1960. Nigeria's natural wealth is represented by two green stripes on the flag. The white stripes, like on the flags of many other countries, represents peace.

Originally there was a red radiating sun in the middle of the flag, but later judges removed the badge and since then the Nigerian flag remained unchanged.

A rare flag question with difficult choices.

Evelyn Forbes, The flag occupied the entire box, with three stripes, green on either side with white in the middle. Thank you, Christine, James' wife

I love to look at pictures of flags. I find it interesting.

Actually, my ex-wife who happens to be Nigerian, might have had her country's flag around the home, on display from time-to-time during international soccer games.
