The flag of the Unity is a recognized national flag, theoretically agreed togheter by the ethnic groups to be used at side of the national flag. I believe that there never was a party called UNITY but only a flag called "drapeau de l'unité". Unité is an institutional agreement (pact) between the three ethnic grups created from initiative of the (then) country president Buyoya (before 1993). Following this agreement free elections were organizated and the first hutu president (from FRODEBU) was elected.
