Description
English: Coat of arms of State of Katanga (1960-1963). This digital reproduction was based on the File:Flag of Katanga.svg and inspired by the following primary sources: Etat Secessionniste Du Katanga (1960-1963), Rhodesian insignia, also Arab Legion, UN Medal, Katanga, Biafra and S. African Police Reaction Unit patch (www.warbooks.com), Ambulance mitraillée par les soldats de PONU (page 235) and [http://www.ngw.nl/int/afr/katanga.htm Civic Heraldry of Congo (former Zaire) (www.ngw.nl) - Katanga State]. the flag was designed by an architect named Louis Dressen. The flag was introduced on 1960-07-18 and ratified by the national assembly on 1960-07-28, remaining until its last usage on 1963-05-24. During its short existence, the flag had many variations, primarily in its design and colour of the three crosses.
