Flag of Michoacán - Symbolism and Design of the Mexican State Flag #2242178 (License: Personal Use)

The flag features a blue canton in the upper left bearing a white five-pointed star, symbolizing independence and liberty. At center is a green oak tree (encino), representing strength and endurance, while the rightmost red vertical stripe-edged with a serrated pattern-signifies the blood shed for freedom and justice. The design was officially adopted in 1980 and reflects Michoacán’s deep cultural and historical identity.
