Red, Black, White and Green
Jordan uses the Pan-Arab colors as its national colors, which are all used on the Jordanian flag. The origin of these colors comes from the flags of the Abbasid (black), Umayyad (white) and Fatimid (green) caliphates, and the Arab Revolt(red).
Jordan's national colors are also the traditional team colours of the Jordan national sporting teams. And they are used on the logos of many of its institutes.

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or green:
“When cats run home and light is come,
And dew is cold upon the ground,
And the far-off stream is dumb,
And the whirring sail goes round,
And the whirring sail goes round;
Alone and warming his five wits,
The white owl in the belfry sits.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“In his green den the murmuring seal
Close by his sleek companion lies;
While singly we to bedward steal,
And close in fruitless sleep our eyes.”
—George Darley (1795–1846)
