Civil flag and ensign, ratio: 2:3

The current flag of Bolivia was originally adopted in 1851. The state (and war) flag consists of red, yellow and green stripes with the Bolivian coat of arms in the center. The civil flag (and ensign) of Bolivia omits the coat of arms.

According to one source, the red stands for Bolivia's animals and its liberating army, while the green symbolizes fertility and yellow the nation's mineral deposits. [1]
