The flag of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) changed with political developments in the country. At independence in 1965 the recently adopted flag of Southern Rhodesia was used, until a new flag (the green and white tricolour) was adopted in 1968. The 1968 flag remained in use following the declaration of the republic in 1970 and it was also initially the flag of Zimbabwe Rhodesia until a new flag was adopted in September 1979.
