The National Flag of the United States of Mexico (Estados Unidos Mexicanos)
Our neighbor to the south is the most populous Spanish-speaking country in the world (population over 100 million). About three times the size of Texas. Mexico has a rapidly developing economy, ranked by the World Bank as the twelfth largest in the world. The climate ranges from tropical to desert, and the terrain consists of coastal lowlands, central high plateaus, and mountains of up to 18,000 feet.
The Mexican flag has three equal vertical bands of green (hoist side), white, and red; the coat of arms (an eagle perched on a cactus with a snake in its beak) is centered in the white band.
Our version of this flag is made of light-weight polyester and is 3' by 5'. |
