Galmudug, which claims to control a combination of the Mudug and Galgadud
regions, was first to test the theory of the "mini-state" in 2006. Since
that time, it has become a kind of role model for many mini-states claiming to
govern areas over which they actually have they have little or no control.

Galmudug is a combination of the regions Galgadud and Mudug. The state was proclaimed in 2006. It has used a number of flags.

Initially it flew the Somali flag but sometimes above
the star a white inscription “State Somaliyya” was added. The second flag
used was white with the arms in center. These arms were the Somali
national arms between laurel branches, and below a blue ribbon with the white
letters GMS. The third flag used was blue over green horizontal stripes
with a white triangle at hoist containing a red star. This flag is the
same design as the flag of Djibouti. A further flag
was light blue with green triangle at the hoist, fimbriated in white, bearing
within a white crescent and star as shown above.
On 08 July 2010 this was changed the flag to a new design which comprises
horizontal stripes of yellow, blue and green. In the blue central stripe
is a white five pointed star.

It uses a flag which has three horizontal stripes of blue, over white over green with a red triangle at hoist.
In the center of the
upper blue stripe is a white five pointed star.
