Flags of the World | Costa Rica


Postcard
The current flag of Costa Rica is in use since 1906. But a very similar flag since 1848. Somehow the coat of arms is missing on this flag.

The dark blue represents the sky, idealism, opportunities and perseverance. The white stripes represent peace, wisdom, and happiness. The red stands for the blood spilled by martyrs defending the country, as well as the warmth and generosity of the Costa Ricans.
