Abu Dhabi Flag

Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and also the largest of seven emirates that together form this country. Abu Dhabi has a flag of its own, and also follows the national flag of UAE.

The flag of Abu Dhabi is red in color, with a white canton on top left side. The width of this flag is one-third of the hoist, and the length is one-third of the fly.

The national flag of UAE was adopted by Federal Law on December 21, 1971. The flag of United Arab Emirates is often referred to as the Emirati Flag.

Rectangular in shape, the length of this flag is double its width. Consisting of four rectangular parts, the Abu Dhabi/UAE flag has three equal horizontal bands of green (top), white (middle), and black (bottom). Area of the UAE flag close to the mast comprises a wider vertical red band. This band is as wide as half of the flag's width.
