In the 60’s was founded a left-wing liberation movement called MOLINACO
(Mouvement de Libération Nationale des Comores - Comoros National
Liberation Movement).
According to Calvarin [clv02],
its flag was horizontally divided black-green-blue with four stars in the
canton. According to Lux-Wurm [lux01],
MOLINACO was in exile in Zanzibar; the colours refer
thus to the Zanzibar’s Afro-Shirazi Party.

Proprtions 2:3. Horizontal black-green-blue. Four white 5-pointed stars
at upper hoist. Note: The successive Comoros national
flags retained only the stars and the green colour from this design.

Smith [smi76] and the Brockhaus
Enzyklopädie (supplement 1976) [bro76]
shows the stars forming a square, whereas
M. Corbic [crbXX] reports the stars arranged in a
diagonal pattern. According to
Lux-Wurm [lux01],
the stars on the flag were sometimes arranged in an arc
of a circle.

According to Lucien Philippe
[phi02a],
PASOCO used a red flag with a yellow crescent and four yellow stars placed
in a diamond pattern on the right of the crescent.

CHUWA used a flag similar to the 1975 Comorian
national flag (horizontally divided red-green, 2:1) but with a thicker
crescent and the four white stars placed vertically. (Source:

What was the connection between this party and the
1975-1978 Comorian regime?
António Martins, 02 Dec 2005
The Front Démocratique is a left-wing political party based
in Moroni; I’ve never heard of them having a flag, though, and I know
the leader of the FD fairly well (he was my neighbour for two years).
They have a branch in Mayotte.
