Flag of Colombia — Banner of Liberty and Independence

The national flag of Colombia traces its origins to the independence movements of northern South America in the early 19th century. The large yellow stripe symbolises the wealth and resources of the land, the blue represents the oceans and rivers connecting Colombia to the wider world, and the red honours the blood shed during the struggle for independence from Spain. Derived from the banner of Gran Colombia — the great republic envisioned by Simón Bolívar — the Colombian flag remains one of the enduring symbols of Latin American independence and unity.
