Puzzle Description:

The national flag of Kenya. The black is said to represent the people, the red the blood spilled for national freedom, the green the land, the white insets peace and honesty. The center Maasai shield represents the will to defend all of the above.

Christian, while I appreciate the new information about the significance of your flags' names, please know that there are already hundreds of flag puzzles already on the site, some of them repeated many, many times. For most of us regulars it's a case of been there a lot, done that again and again. Please read the Create Puzzles link on the left panel written by Jan Wolter, the much-respected creator of this site, for hints on creating interesting puzzles. Here is his take on flags:

If you solve many puzzles on this site, you will eventually hit a puzzle showing a flag of somebody else's country. You will naturally be inspired to produce a puzzle showing a flag of your country. The problem with this is that the vast majority of the world's flags have very simple designs and, if presented unimaginatively, make very boring puzzles. The flags which do make half-way decent puzzles are already well represented on the site.
So if you want to do a flag, try to present it in some imaginative way. At the very least, draw it waving in the wind. Or show it flying over the heads of the heros of the great revolution as they defend the barriers with pitchforks. Or use it as a background for a portrait of the much beloved under-secretary of educational reform.

At least the title sure didn't give this one away (snicker snicker). By the way, do I need to make this comment a spoiler??? LOL

@Lollipop
That sounds a bit out of my capability right now, but I'll consider it.
