Does anyone member here on KM has any link or document that can help me or other KM members know about our flag history.

I'm very confused on that issue. I tought the black and red was institued by the Duvalier, but I found out those colors date since our revolution era, and since then many flags came after.

If any members can share any knowlegde on that issue I'll appreciate their inputs.

Thanks,

Piyo [/b]

Not sure what information Neg Montreal has. However, this resource I use often and is very helpful as well.
