Venezuela Flag Patch

"The Venezuelan flag is made of three equal-sized horizontal stripes, the upper stripe is yellow, the middle is blue, and the bottom stripe is colored red. In the middle of the flag, there are seven 5-pointed white stars arranged in a semi-circle. In the upper left corner of the flag of Venezuela is the country’s emblem of the dynasty.

The history of the Venezuelan flag dates back to its use by fighters of independence against Spanish colonial rule. The yellow color in the flag symbolized the American gold, blue America, and the red color symbolized Europe. Now, as before, the yellow represents new opportunities, red Spain, and blue the Atlantic Ocean. The seven stars represent the seven states that exist in Venezuela’s independence." (source: mappr)
