History of the flag

On 4 April, 1959, French Sudan and Senegal formed the Mali Federation . The federation became independent on 20 June, 1960, and Senegal seceded from it on 22 August, 1960, at which point it replaced the federation flag with the tricolour with a green star.

Governor's flag

[Senegal Governor's flag] by Zeljko Heimer , 22 July 1997

From Crampton (1990) , "divided diagonally: lower half green, upper half as the national flag."
I am not quite positive if this reconstruction of mine is any good. It is not mentioned in this description which diagonal is used (I assume the normal one, that is hoist base - fly chief), nor it is mentioned if the star is included in the "upper" half.
Zeljko Heimer , 22 July 1997


Casamance

The supposed flag of Casamance is white only.
