Among all world flags, the flag of Brazil is one of the symbols of the Federative Republic of Brazil, the most populous and largest Portuguese-speaking country in South America, having obtained the independence of the Kingdom of Portugal in 1822. With a 7:10 ratio proportion, this state flag is used as both a Brazilian national flag and a maritime flag (flag) of Brazil. The Brazilian flag was officially instituted in 1989 with the proclamation of the Federative Republic of Brazil, thus restoring democracy following the previous dictatorship regime.

Concerning the flag colors, the Brazil flag consists of a yellow diamond placed in the center of a green rectangle with a blue disc inside this yellow diamond representing a star globe containing exactly 27 stars. A white phylactery band is affixed to the globe and contains Brazil's national motto "Ordem y Progresso", literally Order and Progress. These words written in green letter on the Brazilian flag also refer to the current of philosophical thought of Positivism which was founded by Auguste Comte: philosophical doctrine based on the positivist postulate that scientific experimentation is the only way to affirm a truth. A lettering that corresponds well to this nation with a pioneering spirit and always oriented towards progress and the future that is Brazil, which Georges Clémenceau called "Eternal Land of the Future".

Historically, the green was the emblem of a great royal family of Portugal: the Serene House of Bragrance, which ruled Brazil from 1815 to 1889. Yellow was the colour of the Habsburgs, a powerful Swiss dynasty that ruled from 1580 to 1640 in Brazil. The blue and star position correspond exactly to the position of the sky in the former Brazilian capital Rio de Janeiro at the time the Brazilian Republic was proclaimed.

The colours of the Brazilian flag: green, yellow, blue also symbolizes the many riches of Brazil: the green colour for the rich and lush Amazonian forest, the yellow gold colour symbolises the rich resources of the Brazilian land while the blue globe of the centre dotted with stars and especially the constellation of the Southern Cross represents Christianity and the Southern Hemisphere. The southern cross, a recurring stellar symbol of the flags of the countries of the Southern Hemisphere, appears on many Oceania flags. The position of the constellations on the flag alongside the Southern Cross on the Brazilian flag respects the real celestial position almost identically.

The 27 stars are clearly associated with the 26 federal states and the only federal district in which the capital Brasilia is located. Each star of the celestial vault on the flag corresponds exactly to a Brazilian state, which makes the current flag of Brazil unique compared to other star flags of countries around the world where the stars are not associated with a specific territory. It should be noted that each state of Brazil also has its own flag.
