History & Meaning of the Colombia Flag
Colombia’s flag symbolizes independence, which several South American countries, including Ecuador and Venezuela, achieved from Spain on July 20, 1810. The flag’s design is based on Francisco de Miranda’s flag of Gran Colombia, a state that existed from 1819 to 1831 and was led by Simón Bolívar.
