Colors and Symbolism of the Flag of Argentina

The flag of Argentina is a horizontal triband that features a stripe of white between a pair of light blue stripes. The Sun of May is displayed in gold in the center of the white stripe. The symbolic value of the flag's colors is debated, and may have changed from the intentions of the flag's original designer. Popular belief states that the blue bars represent the sky, while the white bar represents the clouds. The Sun of May, which originated as the emblem on the oldest coins in Argentina, represents the sun that shines over the country. It is likely that the colors were actually chosen as a show of loyalty to the king of Spain, since the Argentinian Revolution was nominally fought in his name against local leaders. The colors were retained after the revolutionaries began to fight for complete independence, and it is likely that their symbolic meaning began to change at the same time.
