Adopted in 1895 by the Puerto Rican Revolutionary Committee and officially recognized in 1952, it symbolizes the island’s struggle for sovereignty and cultural pride. The red represents the blood of warriors, white signifies victory and peace, and the blue star stands for the island itself as a free and independent entity.
