ZOOM ON the flag of Belize, its meaning and the symbols of Belize with AZ FLAG

The flag of Belize is a very beautiful vexillary emblem of Central America and it consists of a navy blue background, two thin red horizontal stripes at the top and bottom and the arms of Belize in the centre of the flag in a large white disc.

This national flag and merchant, state and navy flag was adopted on 21st September 1981. This date marks the day of Belize's independence from the United Kingdom.

With the national coat of arms, the national motto "Sub umbra floreo" (I flower in the shade) and the national anthem "Land of the Free", the magnificent epiphytic orchid Prosthechea cochleata, known as the black orchid in Belize and finally the two national animals: the toucan with a hull and the tapir, the national belizean flag is one of the symbols attributed to Belize.

The flag bears the red and blue colours of the country's two main political parties: the PUP (United People's Party) in blue and the UDP (United Democratic Party) in red.

In the centre, there is a large white circle with the country's coat of arms representing two workers on each side of a coat of arms (adorned with tools) and a mahogany tree, and under which there is a scroll with the national motto "Sub umbra florea". This pattern is encircled by a green garland with 50 mahogany leaves. All its various elements refer to Belize's forestry (the forest industry), on which the country's economy was dependent until the 20th century, especially under British colonization.

In addition to the flag of Belize, you will also find the flags of Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, Panama and all the countries of the world that make up Central America.
