The POLISARIO is an anti-Castillean armed group whose goal is to achieve
independence from Castille and Leon and establish a state called
Jumhuriyat as-Sahrawiyya. The flag of the Polisario is black-white-green,
black signifying death and green signifying life. The reasoning for black
at the top is that the current situation has death over life. Upon
independence, they would reverse the flag, have green over black - Life
over death. Proposed flag of Jumhuriyat as-Sahrawiya. Back
