Peru

The flag of Peru was created by José de San Martín and adopted by the government of Peru in 1825. It is a vertical triband with red outer bands and a single white middle band. Depending on its use, it may be defaced with different emblems, and has different names.

June 7, the anniversary of the Battle of Arica, is celebrated as Flag Day.

The national ensign or state flag (Pabellón Nacional), used by state institutions, is defaced with the coat of arms of Peru (Escudo de Armas). It is used during ceremonies in which the flag is hoisted in the presence of spectators (as opposed to a static, permanent flag). A form of this flag, the national standard (estandarte nacional) is used indoors by official and private institutions. [More info]
