Buy a flag of Uruguay and discover the history of the national flag and its symbolism

Among all flags, the Uruguay flag consists of nine horizontal white and blue stripes alternating with a white square in its upper left corner with a representation of the sun. It is one of the symbols of the Eastern Republic of Uruguay, a South American country that hosted the first football world cup in history in 1930, sometimes called South American Switzerland.

Located in southern Brazil and eastern Argentina, it borders the Atlantic Ocean. The Republic of Uruguay owes its name to the river that flows through it and the Rio Uruguay which in the Guaraní language is called the "river of painted birds".

The flag of Uruguay was adopted on July 12, 1830, a few weeks before the official recognition on August 27, 1830 of Uruguay's independence from Spain and Brazil. Its symbolism is closely linked to the country's history and its constitution as a free and independent nation. The nine horizontal bands refer to the nine political divisions that originally formed the country: Peasant, Soriano, Colonia, Durazno, Cerro Largo, San José, Canelones, Maldonado and the capital Montevideo. The sun with sixteen straight and wavy rays in the white square on the left side of the Uruguayan flag refers to the Sun of May (Sol de Mayo), a revolutionary symbol representative of the episode of the May Revolution, a period that marks the struggle for the independence of South American countries from Spain. The symbol of the Sol de Mayo is also present on the flag of Argentina.
