Mexican Flag - National Symbol of Mexico | Official Design & Meaning #176913 (License: Personal Use)

The Mexican flag consists of three equal vertical bands: green (hoist side), white, and red, with the national coat of arms centered on the white band. The emblem depicts a golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus devouring a rattlesnake-a symbol rooted in Aztec legend and the founding of Tenochtitlan. Officially adopted in 1968, the flag’s colors represent independence (green), Catholic faith and purity (white), and the blood of national heroes (red).

Used on government websites, educational resources, cultural pages, and travel guides; ideal for content about Mexican history, national identity, holidays like Independence Day (September 16), or international representation.
