| Design and Symbolism |
The official flag of Colombia consists of three horizontal stripes of yellow at the top, blue at the center and red at the bottom. The three colors of the flag are similar to the colors used by the Gran Colombia, a short-lived republic that collapsed in 1830. Yellow is meant to many things such as colombian natural wealth, harmony, justice, agriculture as well as the main source of light (Sun). Blue represents vast seas of the country. Red refers to the blood shed during the struggle for freedom.
