Forgive my ignorance, but I noticed that the flag of Somalia pictured on the CIA World Factbook (https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/flags/so-lgflag.gif) is of a different shade of blue than the one depicted here... does anyone know which shade is the right shade? --The Listener 21:41, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Both designs are correct, though the Wikipedia one is slightly more close to the original official version. The official Somali design is light blue, officially azure, which the Wikipedia one is. The CIA one is a faded light blue. What distinguishes the flags is the slightly faded part. Soomaali (Aug. 23/07) —The preceding signed but undated comment was added at 11:43, August 23, 2007 (UTC).
