		The first national flag of Syria after independence in 1944 was a green-white-fl horizontal tricolour, with three red five-pointed stars.
		In 1958, Syria and Egypt merged to form the United Arab Republic and adopted the red-white-fl design with two green stars that is Syria's current flag.
		The colors of the flag are traditional Pan-Arabic colors, also seen on the flags of Yemen, Egypt, Sudan, and Iraq.

		Syria is significant in the history of Christianity; Paul was converted on the road to Damascus and established the first organized Christian Church at Antioch in ancient Syria, from which he left on many of his missionary journeys.

		Syria consists mostly of arid plateau, although the northwest part of the country bordering the Mediterranean is fairly green.

		The United States flag has fifty stars to show how the fifty states stand together, while Syria's flag has the colors white, red, and fl which represents unity among Arabs.

		The current flag of Syria is a re-adoption of a flag first used by the country when Syria and Egypt merged to form the United Arab Republic in 1958, a union that lasted until in 1961.
		The flag adopted by all three Federation members was based on the Arab Liberation Flag (red-white-fl horizontal stripes) featuring the arms of the Federation.
		Syria left the Federation in 1980 after Egypt made conciliatory overtones to the Israeli government and reverted to their 1958 flag on the 3rd of April 1980.

	Ba'ath Party (Syria) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Besides the national flag there is almost always another flag flying or hanging, that of the ruling Ba'ath Party, which is essentially the same as the flag of Palestine.
		This is the flag adopted by both factions of the Party and is supposed to be derived from the flag of the Arab Revolt of 1916.
		As these displayed the colours of the national flag as well as of the Ba'ath flag side by side, it is difficult to decide from these arrangements, which colour would be on top.

		Syria's predominantly statist economy has been growing, on average, more slowly than its 2.4% annual population growth rate, causing a persistent decline in per capita GDP.
		Recent legislation allows private banks to operate in Syria, although a private banking sector will take years and further government cooperation to develop.
		External factors such as the international war on terrorism, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the war between the US-led coalition and Iraq probably will drive real annual GDP growth levels back below their 3.5% spike in 2002.
