About the flag

The flag depicted is that of the Philippines, featuring a unique design that includes a horizontal bicolor of blue and red with a white triangle on the left. The triangle contains a golden sun and three stars, symbolizing the country's three main geographical regions: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The blue stripe represents peace, truth, and justice, while the red signifies patriotism and valor. An interesting fact about the Philippine flag is its dual nature: it is flown in a different position during times of war, with the red stripe on top. This reflects the country’s readiness to defend its sovereignty. Learning to recognize flags not only enhances your knowledge of world cultures but also fosters a deeper appreciation for the stories and values they represent.
