The use of historical and military flags, including the national Pakistani flag, is not something that has been done only for the last decade or century. In fact and interestingly, banners and flags have been used for many hundreds if not thousands of years. Over the years, most flags have had more of a religious meaning. Militaries past and present also have used flag for signaling purposes. During the last few decades, parties with more of political motivation, commercial organizations and people started using banners and flags for purposes that include identification and signaling.

An assembly adopted the official design of the Pakistani banner a few decades ago. The Pakistani flag features two fields, or maybe better said one field, which is dark green in color. To the left of the green field is a white vertical band, which is smaller sized. This national flag was adopted right around the time it was granted independence and is a fitting representation of the Pakistani republic.
