El Salvador: about the flag
El Salvador's flag descends from the banner of the United Provinces of Central America, the 1823 federation that once united five countries. Blue-white-blue stands for the two oceans that bracket the isthmus, the Pacific and the Caribbean, and white for peace.
For nearly fifty years, though, El Salvador flew something quite different: a flag modeled on the Stars and Stripes, with stars for its provinces, used from 1865 to 1912. The country then returned to the federal colors and added the coat of arms: a triangle for equality, a rainbow for peace, and the motto Dios, Union, Libertad, God, union, freedom.
The flag was fixed in its current form in 1912. Salvadorans raise it on 15 September, independence day, across a country where the flag's blue also colors the national football team's shirts.
