  1. El Salvador Flag Meaning:

    The blue stripes represent the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea; while the white stripe symbolizes peace. The state coat of arms on El Salvador's flag is based on the coat of arms of the former United Provinces of Central America. The coat of the arms shows a triangle which represents equality and the three branches of El Salvador's government. Inside the triangle are five volcanoes which symbolize the five former members of the federation, flanked by the blue of the ocean and sea. The triangle contains symbols of liberty, ideals of the people and peace, which are represented by a red cap, golden rays and the rainbow. The triangle also shows the date that El Salvador gained independence from Spain. Underneath the triangle lies El Salvador's national motto which translates in English to 'God, Union and Liberty'. The fourteen clusters of leaves represent the 14 departments or states of El Salvador.


  2. las banderas de central america son similar (menos costa rica).

    el azul significa el mar (de los dos lados de centro america) y el blanco (en el medio es el paz.

    tiene la escuda de armas con el triangulo.

    creo que hay 14 hojas verdes por los 14 departamentos (estados) que hay en el salvador.

    espero que le ayuda.
