Flag of Guatemala - Central American Rectangular Sticker

The flag of Guatemala features two colours: sky blue and white. The two sky blue stripes represent the fact that Guatemala is a land located between two oceans, the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean (Caribbean sea); and the sky over the country (see Guatemala's National Anthem). The white colour signifies peace and purity. In the centre of the flag is the Guatemalan coat of arms. It includes the resplendent quetzal, the national bird of Guatemala that symbolises liberty; a parchment scroll bearing the date of Central America's independence from Spain, 15 September 1821; crossed rifles, indicating Guatemala's willingness to defend itself by force if need be; a bay laurel crown, the symbol for victory; and crossed swords, representing honour. The flag is one of only two national flags of UN member states to feature a firearm, the other being Mozambique. You can personalise the design further if you'd prefer, such as by adding your name or other text, or adjusting the image - just click 'Customise' to see all the options.
