Mozambique’s Quest for Peace
As one of the nations whose, flags or coats of arms include an AK-47, Mozambique’s pursuit of peace is tinged with the sound of gunfire. This hoe-crossed flag dates back to 1983. This icon will be used in a great number of countries.
In addition to their particular significance, hoes and rifles often appear combined on flags and coats of arms.
As a combined emblem, the hoe and rifle may mean everything from peace to violence and back again. The Mozambican coat of arms has these designs. In the Mozambican flag, the green represents prosperity, the black represents Africa, and the crimson represents blood.
East Timor’s Bow and Spear
East Timor’s current flag was created in 2002, shortly after the country declared independence. The East Timorese people have been oppressed for over 400 years, and the flag’s colors—yellow for independence and red for their blood—represent this.
In East Timor’s flag, white represents a bright future and the promise of a better life.
The coat of arms features an AK-47 and a spear, both of which stand for freedom. There is a motif on the coat of arms that commemorates the country’s triumph in a 30-year fight for independence from Indonesia.
East Timor gained its independence in 1999 with the support of the United Nations, and the country’s new flag and coat of arms honour that achievement.

Zimbabwe’s 15-Year War
Countries flying banners depicting the AK-47 make their intentions quite apparent. Zimbabwe is not an exception to the rule that it is a weapon of war.
Again, you will find the combined hoe and rifle sign on Zimbabwe’s coat of arms. Zimbabwe’s struggle lasted for 15 years, and the rifle was a key weapon.
There are four primary colours on the flag: green, red, black, and gold. Besides the bird, there is a five-pointed star on the flag.
Located in the Great Zimbabwe ruins, the statue is a symbol of the country’s past and its namesake bird. The promise and especially the hope for the future are symbolised by the star.
Despite this, it is rooted in socialism, a socialist concept that strives for world peace. The Republic of Zimbabwe relies heavily on the mining sector, which is symbolised by the wreath on the flag.
Another element of the flag is a mound of earth, which represents provision for its people in the form of food and shelter.
