The Colombian flag was
designed by Francisco Miranda in 1806 but not adopted until 1861.
The Yellow represents the independence of the country. The blue
stands for the ocean separating the country from Spain and the red
stands for the blood shed for liberty from Spain.
Each

nation's government and displayed at the U.N.
headquarters. Where noted the "civil" flag is also
available. It is identical to the "government" flag except
the seal is omitted.
Flags for Outdoor use are made of 100% heavyweight
nylon and finished with strong canvas headings and brass
