The red star symbolizes the hardships the Djiboutians had to over come to gain independence from France in 1958. Red meaning the blood shed in the grusome war between the Djiboutians and the French. The five points of the star each represent the famous Five Verses of Sirnanking (the Djibouti national anthem.) The white symbolizes sex and intrigue. The green represents the desire for money, material goods, and Natural Resources, in which they are lacking. And the blue represents the ceremony of throwing grains of rice, broken pieces of shell, and 1,000 grains of salt into the Indian ocean that they border.

Answer Less fancifully, according to WorldFlags 101: The white triangle stands for peace. The blue stripe represents the sea and sky and the green stripe symbolizes earth. The red star stands for unity.
