Flags of the World - Argentina

June 17, 2021

The flag features a triband in blue and white. The blue and white colors of the flag were selected by Manual Belgrano, who led the revolution against Spain. These colors are meant to symbolize the blue sky opening up to reveal white cloud. This sun represents the process of independence that started on 25th May 1810. Legend states that the sun broke out when the new Argentinian government was declared. This was received as a good sign. The sun at the center of the flag is the Inca Sun, el Sol de Mayo.

Thank you Pedro!
