[edit] Does one of the stars stand for Secularism - or Islam?

According to German wiki, the stars stand for nationalism, democracy, islamic socialism and islam, while according to the article in English, they stand for nationalism, democracy, Socialism and Secularism.

Was this really defined formally? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 132.72.45.187 (talk) 15:39, 18 February 2007 (UTC).

According to the 1972 constitution, the 4 basic principles of the country were Democracy, Nationalism, Secularism and Socialism. The 4 stars stand for those principles. The German wikipedia is incorrect. --Ragib 19:00, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
