The Empire Strikes Back


This is the flag of a country that existed for three years between 1967 and 1970. Which Country ?

Also, the country's independence was supported by a prominent author, who was also one of the ambassadors of the new nation. Who ?

Answer:

As guessed correctly by quite a few, this is Biafra, which broke off from Nigeria during 1967.
The country's ambassador was prominent author Chinua Achebe (Things Fall Apart, Anthills of the Savannah). This part went unanswered.
