Mexican Flag - National Symbol of Mexico | Official Design & Meaning #3342633 (License: Personal Use)

The Mexican flag consists of three equal vertical bands: green (hoist side), white, and red. At the center of the white band is the national coat of arms, depicting a golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus devouring a rattlesnake-symbolizing the Aztec legend of Tenochtitlan’s founding. The flag’s current design was officially standardized in 1968, though its origins trace back to the War of Independence in 1821.
