The national flag of the United Kingdoms of Bamenda is a powerful emblem of unity, royalty, and resolve. It features two equal vertical bands — crimson red and royal blue — divided cleanly in the middle. Centered on the flag is a bold white crown, a symbol of indigenous leadership, dignity, and the authority of the people.
Red symbolizes the sacrifice and struggle of those who gave their lives for justice and freedom.
Blue represents peace, trust, wisdom, and the collective calmness in building a harmonious society.
The Crown is a unifying symbol of the many kingdoms and fondoms within UKB, honoring the traditional rulers and the sovereignty of the people.
This flag reminds citizens that while our past was scarred by division, our future is crowned with unity, resilience, and national pride.
The anthem of the UKB is a stirring melody of hope, sovereignty, and rebirth. It speaks to the ancestral pain of colonization, the betrayal of union promises, and the triumph of a people rising from oppression with dignity. Sung in both English and Pidgin, the anthem embodies inclusion and celebrates the diverse linguistic and cultural identity of UKB.
The anthem inspires courage and declares to the world that the people of Bamenda have reclaimed their voice and are marching toward a just and prosperous future.
The emblem features:
A white crown centered atop two interlocking shields, signifying defense of both heritage and future.
Three spears behind the crown representing vigilance, tradition, and justice.
A banner below reading: “Dignity, Liberty, Unity.”
This coat of arms honors the traditional leadership structures of the Bamenda grassfields while affirming the modern aspirations of a united democratic society.
The map of the United Kingdoms of Bamenda includes seven major divisions:

Together, these symbols:

They are not mere images but living statements — of a people reclaiming their place, restoring their honor, and inviting the world to engage with them as equals.
