The Flag Company Inc And Bolivia Flag History

By Boby Frank


Landlocked Bolivia is equal in size to California and Texas combined. Brazil forms its eastern border; its other neighbors are Peru and Chile on the west and Argentina and Paraguay on the south. Famous since Spanish colonial days for its mineral wealth, modern Bolivia was once a part of the ancient Inca empire. After the Spaniards defeated the Incas in the 16th century, Bolivia's predominantly Indian population was reduced to slavery.

The Republic of Bolivia (now called the Plurinational State of Bolivia) and its struggle to maintain social cohesion, political and economic stability, and development efforts being made through the present. The banners of Bolivia didn't generally appear as they do today. On the seventeenth of August, 1825, only eleven days after Bolivia proclaimed its freedom from Spain, the principal Bolivian banner and coat of arms were made.

Its stripes were green-red-green, with the red stripe being marginally wider than the other two. Five stars were sewn onto the more extensive red stripe, that speaks of the five regions the nation had at the time.

This version was modified on the 26th of July, 1826 when Congress changed the color of the upper green stripe to yellow making it yellow-red-green. The 5 stars on the red stripe were replaced by a national coat of arms.

Like every country's banner has a reason or importance credited to the hues as well as insignias, the Bolivian Flag has its own significance. The red stripe on top of the Bolivian banner is illustrative of the Bolivian trooper's fortitude with regards to their nation. Yellow stands for the rich mineral assets of the nation. Green symbolizes the fruitfulness of their land.

On November 6, 1851, President Manuel Belzu just reset the hues to mirror the request of the hues found in the kantuta and the patuju, the two Bolivian National Flowers: red-yellow-green. The Flag Company Inc represented considerable dedication in banner outlines offered an extraordinary version of decals and banners to retain the national banner of Bolivia for the future eras.
