Galmudug State flag

Galmudug, which claims to control a combination of the Mudug and Galgadud regions, was first to test the theory of the "mini-state" in 2006.  Since that time, it has become a kind of role model for many mini-states claiming to govern areas over which they actually have they have little or no control.

The flag of Galmudug State is shown here.   It has a light blue field with a green triangle at the hoist, fimbriated in white.  In the centre of the triangle is a crescent moon and five pointed star, both in white.
