Spanish Flag


My country has a flag just like the rest of the worlds countries. The Spanish flag is one solid yellow stripe in between two red stripes. On the left side of the flag it shows the country coat of arms. The court of arms shows a crown in between two pillars of hercules. The shield below the crown is sectioned off into four pieces. In the center of the emblem is the symbol of Spain's royal family along with the House of Bourbon. Wrapped around the pillars is a red scroll with the motto Plus Ultra which means there is more beyond. In the upper left corner of the shield there is a castle that represents castile. In the upper right corner a lion is represented by Leon. In the bottom left corner Aragon is represented by red and yellow vertical stripes. In the bottom right corner Navarre is represented by linked chains. The Spanish flag is my pride and my heart and I love it.
