The bandera de Andorra<\/strong> tiene tres franjas verticales: azul<\/strong> (izquierda), amarilla<\/strong> (centro) y roja<\/strong> (derecha), con el escudo de armas de Andorra centrado en la franja amarilla. Fue adoptada oficialmente en 1866 y sus colores derivan de las banderas hist\u00f3ricas de Francia (azul y rojo) y de los obispos de Urgell (amarillo y rojo). Es una de las pocas banderas del mundo con un escudo de armas de cuatro cuarteles que representa a sus cuatro copr\u00edncipes hist\u00f3ricos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fuente: Govern d’Andorra \u2014 Her\u00e0ldica oficial<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n The flag of Andorra, officially adopted in 1971, is made up of three vertical stripes of blue, yellow and red, with the coat of arms in the center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On another occasion we already wrote an article about the history of Andorra by points<\/a> or in capsules, where you can obtain more information ordered chronologically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The flag has evolved from an initial two-tone version of the County of Foix in 1806, composed of yellow and red stripes. In 1866 the blue stripe was added, and in 1914 the design was changed to vertical stripes. The current flag reflects the influence of Emperor Napoleon III, who suggested the addition of blue to represent peace (Wikiwand<\/a>)\u200b\u200b (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<\/a>)\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The shield of Andorra is divided into four quadrants, each representing different historical entities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The shield on the flag symbolizes the unity and collaboration between these entities (Andorra.com<\/a>)\u200b\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The coat of arms of Andorra underlines the country's historical relationship with Spain and France, represented by the bishopric of Urgell and the county of Foix, respectively.
