Name That Flag!

Answer: Barbados! Who was the pop star referred to in the hint? Rihanna. 

Here’s a breakdown of the flag’s meaning, according to Barbados.org:

The national flag of Barbados is comprised of three equal vertical panels – the centre panel of gold and the outer panels of ultramarine. A broken trident in black is located in the centre of the flag.

Blue represents the sea and sky of Barbados, while gold represents the sand of the island’s beaches. The symbol at the centre of the flag represents the Trident of the mythical sea god, Neptune – the shaft of the trident is broken symbolising Barbados’ break from Britain.
