"The flag of the Dominican Republic consists of blue, red and white colors. The white cross, which horizontally and vertically divides the flag into four equal parts, symbolizes the nation that lost its life during the struggle for independence. The red color is the flowing blood during the freedom war and the blue is the constant freedom.

In the flag of the country used by the official institutions, the coat of arms of the country is in the middle." (source: mappr)
