It consists of a red circle on top of a dark green banner. The red circle is offset slightly toward the hoist so that it appears centred when the flag is flying. While there are numerous interpretations, the green of the flag symbolises the lush landscape of Bangladesh, and the red circle, reminiscent of the rising sun, represents the sacrifice made by the people during the <a href="/wiki/Bangladesh_Liberation_war" class="mw-redirect" title="Bangladesh Liberation war">Liberation War of 1971</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The flag is based on a similar flag used during the <a href="/wiki/Bangladesh_War_of_Independence" class="mw-redirect" title="Bangladesh War of Independence">Bangladesh War of Independence</a> of 1971, which had a yellow map of the country inside the red disc. In 1972, this map was removed from the flag.
