The Irish flag and the Ivorian flag are arguably one of the most confusing flags of all time. One way to easily differentiate the Ivorian flag from the Irish flag is the color sequence. Ireland flag is made up of; Green, White & Orange while that of Ivory Coast is; Orange, White & Green. Ireland’s flag symbolizes peace (White) between Catholics (Green) and Protestants (Orange). The Ivorian colors symbolizes the savannah (Orange), rivers (White) and the coastal forests (Green).
