Flag of Panama Size: Panama’s national flag comprises four equivalent rectangular segments. The shade of the top left corner is white, while the top right corner is red. The shade of the bottom left corner is blue while the shade of the bottom right corner is white. A blue star with five corners is situated in the upper white, and a red star with five corners is situated in the lower white square. Meaning: This flag shows the political conditions of the time. The blue was expected to connote the Conservative Party and the red to describe the Liberal Party. The white was expected to represent harmony and virtue. The blue star represents the immaculateness and profound quality of the existence of the country. The red star exemplifies the power and law in the state, and together the stars portray the new republic. History: Before the nation’s freedom, Panama was a state of Spain until the mid-nineteenth century and afterward turned into a division of Colombia. During these two periods in the nation’s set of experiences, the Spanish banner and the Colombian banner were used to represent Panama. Panama’s first flag of freedom was almost indistinguishable from the current flag. The design of the main banner had a blue and red square shape situated at the highest point of the banner, and the base half was white. As ideological groups shaped post-autonomy, blue was picked to address the Conservative Party. Thus, the blue tone was moved to the base left corner. Madame Bunau-Varilla designed the First National Flag of the country. Her configuration was designed according to the plan of the US banner and incorporated the shades of the Spanish and Colombian banners. It had 13 level stripes and a blue square shape in the upper left corner, similar to the US banner. The stripes, in any case, were red and yellow in shading. Madame Bunau-Varilla’s configuration remembered two yellow suns for the blue field, which were associated by a level yellow bar. The President did not accept the design. Thus, a new flag was designed, which we see today. Interesting facts: The first president of Panama himself designed the national flag of Panama. He presented the design to First Lady. She also agreed to the decision and voted on the current flag design. Before the Independence of Panama, the Flag of Spain and the Flag of Colombia were used. 29,119 75,417
