Facts about the flag of Ecuador
Date adopted: 26 September 1860
Symbolism: The yellow represents the abundance and fertility of the land, blue symbolizes the sky and the sea, and red stands for the blood of those who fought for independence. The coat of arms includes the Andean condor, a symbol of protection and power, and the Chimborazo volcano, representing the country's natural beauty.
- Pantone colours: Yellow, Blue, Red
- Aspect ratio: 2 : 1
- Hanging protocol: The flag is typically hung horizontally with the yellow stripe on top, followed by blue and red stripes. When displayed vertically, the yellow stripe should be on the left.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is omitting the national coat of arms in the center of the flag, which distinguishes Ecuador's flag from Colombia's similar tricolor.
