Flag of Belize

From Free net encyclopedia

The national flag of Belize was adopted on September 21, 1981 upon independence from the United Kingdom. The flag is a continued version of the earlier flag of British Honduras (the name of Belize during the British colonial period). This flag was established in 1950 when British Honduras began winning its independence. The two red stripes at the top and bottom were added to the original design when they had gained independence. At the center of the flag is the Belizean coat of arms.
