Argentina

The national flag of Argentina consists of three horizontal stripes in light blue, white and light blue with the Sun of May centered on the white band. The blue stripes symbolize the sky and justice, the white stripe represents peace and honesty, and the golden Sun of May stands for freedom, independence and the birth of the Argentine nation.

The Argentine flag was created by General Manuel Belgrano in 1812 during the country's struggle for independence from Spain. The Sun of May was officially added in 1818, representing the May Revolution of 1810. Today, the flag is one of Argentina's most important national symbols of unity, liberty and sovereignty.
