as for why they are the same flag, the Irish flag means unity between Catholic (green) south and Protestant (orange) north, used from 1922. India's flag also means unity between hindus and muslims and was inspired by the Irish flag leaving british rule from 1947. Ivory Coast and Niger were based on India's flag meaning unity and anti-sectarian but without the chakra wheel from 1960, but this also means it resembles the Irish flag.
