The Brazilian flag consists of a green base with a large yellow rhombus (diamond
shape) in the middle of it. Inside the rhombus is a blue circle with white stars
of different sizes. There is a white banner running through the circle and on it
is a motto which reads "Ordem e Progresso" which translates in English to "Order
and Progress". |

The colors green and yellow represent the Royal Houses of Bragança (Emperor
Pedro I) and Habsburg (Empress Leopoldina). The stars on the blue circle
represent the sky over Rio de Janeiro on the night of November 15, 1889, which
is the day the Republic of Brazil was declared. Each of the 27 stars represents
a different Brazilian state and the Federal District. The number of stars
changes anytime a new state is created. When the Brazilian Republic was founded
there were 21 stars. The star representing the Federal District is 'Sigma
Octantis', and its position near the south celestial pole, makes it visible
across most of Brazil all year round. Made in the
