About the flag

The flag displayed is that of Cuba, characterized by its red triangle, white stripes, and blue stripes. The blue represents the country's three jurisdictions, while the white symbolizes independence and peace. The red triangle signifies the blood shed for freedom. It's distinctive among flags for its unique geometric shape and colors that embody a rich revolutionary history. Cuba's flag was first adopted in 1848, but its design was inspired by the struggle against Spanish colonial rule. A fun fact to help remember it: the prominent red triangle is similar to a slice of pizza, with the blue and white stripes providing a vivid backdrop. This visual connection can aid in recalling that it represents Cuba, an island nation known for its vibrant culture and significant historical role in the Caribbean.
