Flag of Portugal - Official National Symbol and Design #3282836 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Portugal consists of a green vertical band on the hoist side (2/5 width) and a larger red field (3/5), with the national coat of arms-featuring five blue shields and a white border-superimposed over a yellow armillary sphere at the center. The green symbolizes hope and the red represents the blood of those who died defending the nation, while the armillary sphere recalls Portugal’s Age of Discovery. The design was officially adopted after the 1910 revolution that established the Portuguese Republic.
