Flag of Chad Magnet

The national flag of the Republic of Chad (French: Drapeau du Tchad, Arabic: علم تشاد‎) is a vertical tricolor consisting (left to right) of a blue, a yellow and a red field. Blue was substituted for green to avoid confusion with Mali. The basic design is the same as that of the flag of Romania, the flag of Andorra, the flag of Moldova, and the flag of Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. However, it is closest in appearance to the flag of Romania, looking virtually identical to it, differing only in having a darker shade of blue than Romania's flag (indigo rather than cobalt). This resulted in Chad asking the United Nations to examine the issue in 2004, but then-president of Romania Ion Iliescu announced no change would occur to the flag of Romania
