Paraguay Flag: three equal, horizontal bands of red (top), white, and blue with an emblem centered in the white band; unusual flag in that the emblem is different on each side; the obverse (hoist side at the left) bears the national coat of arms (a yellow five-pointed star within a green wreath capped by the words REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY, all within two circles); the reverse (hoist side at the right) bears a circular seal of the treasury (an ochre-colored lion below a red Cap of Liberty and the words PAZ Y JUSTICIA (Peace and Justice) again within two circles); red symbolizes bravery and patriotism, white represents integrity and peace, and blue denotes liberty and generosity.
