Brazil National Flag - Symbol of Order and Progress #3588247 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Brazil consists of a green field symbolizing the House of Braganza, overlaid by a large yellow rhombus representing the House of Habsburg. At its center lies a blue celestial globe showing the Southern Cross and other constellations as they appeared over Rio de Janeiro on November 15, 1889-the day the republic was proclaimed-with 27 white stars denoting Brazil’s 26 states and the Federal District. A white banner across the globe bears the national motto “Ordem e Progresso” (Order and Progress), inspired by Auguste Comte’s positivist philosophy.
