The flag of the Bahamas has an approximately 1:2 aspect ratio. The black triangle on the left represents the unity of the 300,000 people of The Bahamas, who are primarily of African descent. To the right of the triangle, the blue stripes at the top and bottom of the flag represent the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, and the gold stripe in the middle represents the land between them: the sandy shores of the Bahamian islands. The flag was adopted on July 10, 1973.
