The current flag of Andalusia was adopted in 1918. Blas Infante (1885-1936), the "Father" of the Andalusian Fatherland (Spanish: Padre de la Patria Andaluza), initiated an assembly at Ronda in 1918. This assembly adopted a charter based on the Antequera Constitution (a nationalist Andalusian charter that styled Andalusia as an autonomous republic inside a Spanish federal state; this constitution is known as Constitución Federal de Antequera) and also adopted the current flag of Andalusia and coat of arms as "national symbols".[1] Its name used to be Arbonaida or also Arbondaira.
The colours of Andalusian flag, green and white, represent hope and peace, as the anthem says:
La bandera blanca y verde vuelve tras siglos de guerra a decir paz y esperanza bajo el sol de nuestra tierra. |
The white and green flag comes back after centuries of war to say peace and hope under our land's Sun. |
