  • South African National Flag: Features bold colors and a V-shape, symbolizing unity and progress.
  • National Anthem: Sung in five languages, incorporating diverse cultural traditions into one unifying song.
  • Coat of Arms: A symbol of authenticity in South Africa, containing various elements like tusks, wheat, and a rising sun. It conveys the motto “!Ke e: /!Ditso” meaning “Everything will be well.”
