History
Belize adopted this flag on 21 September 1981, the day of independence. According to the provided memo, the blue and red colors represent the nation’s two main political parties and symbolize unity, while the 50 green leaves around the coat of arms commemorate 1950, when the struggle for independence began. The coat of arms reflects Belize’s timber-based economy and multicultural heritage.
