Description

The flag of Colombia features three horizontal stripes with bold colors.
The top stripe is yellow and takes up half the flag’s height.
This yellow symbolizes the nation’s wealth, sunshine, and prosperity.
Below it, the blue stripe represents the seas and rivers of Colombia.
The red stripe at the bottom honors the bravery and sacrifice of its people.
Together, the colors reflect Colombia’s rich history and natural beauty.
Adopted in 1861, the design has become a strong national symbol.
Today, the flag stands for unity, pride, and the vibrant spirit of Colombia.
