How it is put together

Measured off the picture, the same way the colours were, not from anybody's description of it.

  • 3 horizontal bands

    The fly edge changes colour going down, the foot does not, and every change is a straight line right across.

    white ones · blue ones

  • a disc

    A single round device near the middle, as wide as it is tall, filling its box the way a circle does.

    white ones · blue ones

What is on it

Each of these is what this flag's own Wikipedia article says is on it, the sentence is underneath, so you can see what it rests on.

  • sun

    The full flag featuring the sun is called the Official Ceremonial Flag (Bandera Oficial de Ceremonia).

Its days

The almanac keeps a page per day of the year that something is dated to. This flag is on 3 of them, with the sentence that says so.

Nearest in the world

Every flag is compared with every other one, off the pictures themselves. Two copies of one picture score 0; these are the closest to this one. How that is measured.
