Google has marked Pakistan’s 79th Independence Day with a clean, minimalist Doodle featuring the country’s green and white flag, a design choice that captures both simplicity and symbolism.
The artwork, displayed on Google’s homepage in Pakistan, shows the crescent and star waving against an open sky — a visual nod to the nation’s resilience, unity, and enduring quest for progress.
This year’s design continues Google’s tradition of celebrating Pakistan’s national day through custom illustrations. The tech giant began the practice in 2011 with a green-themed tribute featuring the crescent, star, and the Minar-e-Pakistan. In the years since, these Doodles have evolved into a much-anticipated feature of the annual festivities, often highlighting different elements of Pakistani culture and heritage.
While previous designs have showcased landmarks, landscapes, and cultural motifs, the 2025 edition focuses solely on the flag — a deliberate shift that places national pride at the center of the Independence Day narrative. The understated style has already drawn attention on social media, with many praising its elegance and clarity.
Google’s Independence Day Doodles have become more than just homepage art; they serve as digital postcards to the world, offering a snapshot of a nation’s identity on one of its most important days.
