The 1959 flag was in turn replaced on July 31, 1963, by a version of the Arab Liberation Flag of Iraq first flown in Egypt in 1952. As such, it was similar to the flags of Hashemite Jordan, and the short-lived Kingdom of Hejaz. The new Flag of Iraq continued to be used in the Kingdom of Iraq. It was soon changed to a new version with a red trapezoid replacing the triangle and two seven-point white stars denoting the Tigris River, and the Euphrates River.
