Philippine Flag

084 Philippine Flag

The national flag of the Philippines is a horizontal bicolor featuring equal bands of royal blue and crimson red, with a white equilateral triangle at the hoist. It is highly unique among national emblems because it can signify a state of war simply by being flown upside down, placing the red stripe on top. Designed by Emilio Aguinaldo and first unfurled on June 12, 1898, the flag represents the country's independence, unity, and resilience
