As early as 300 to 400 AD, people who came from what is now Cuba (there was no country named Cuba at that time) lived on The Islands Of The Bahamas and relied on the ocean for food. From around 900-1500 AD, the Lucayan people settled here. They enjoyed a peaceful way of life and had developed viable political, social and religious systems.
The name "Bahamas" comes from the Spanish Baja mar meaning shallow sea and is an archipelago of over 700 islands stretching over 258,998 square km in the western Atlantic Ocean. The Lucayan Indians were the original inhabitants: they lived throughout The Bahamas between 900 and 1500 A.D.
The population took off in the late eighteenth century with the entry from America of Loyalist families and their slaves after the American Revolution. In 1783-84 the population was 4,058; by 1789, it was more than 11,000, with the white pilgrims creating a critical minority.
In 1964, a new constitution set up a ministerial system of government, and the legislature was reformed to represent majority interests. After the subsequent general election in 1967, the United Bahamian Party (the so-called 'Bay Street Boys') was forced into opposition for the first time in the assembly's history.
The hues in the configuration of the Bahamian banner symbolize the picture and yearnings of the general population of The Bahamas; the outline reflects parts of the indigenous habitat (the sun, sand, and ocean) and the monetary and social advancement. The banner is a dark equilateral triangle against the pole, superimposed on an even foundation made up of two hues on three equivalent stripes of sea green/blue, gold, and sea green/blue.
The symbolism of the banner is the following: Black reflects the power, the triangle directing towards the body of the banner reflects the endeavor and determination of The Bahamian individuals toward creation and possession of the rich resources of sun and ocean symbolized by gold. Flag Company Inc decided to assist with the history development by providing special decals and banners to make it easy to build a bit of history right at home.
