| |
| The national '''[[flag]] of [[Argentina]]''' is a [[triband (flag)|triband]], composed of three equally wide horizontal bands coloured [[light blue (color)|light blue]], [[white]] and light blue. There are multiple interpretations on the reasons for those colors. The flag was created by [[Manuel Belgrano]], in line with the recent creation of the [[Cockade of Argentina]], and was first raised at the city of [[Rosario]] on February 27, 1812, during the [[Argentine War of Independence]]. The [[National Flag Memorial]] was later built on the site. The [[First Triumvirate (Argentina)|First Triumvirate]] did not approve the use of the flag, but the [[Asamblea del Año XIII]] allowed the use of the flag as a [[war flag]]. It was the [[Congress of Tucumán]] which finally designated it as the [[national flag]], in 1816. A yellow [[Sun of May]] was added to the center in 1818.
| |
| | |
| The full flag featuring the sun is called the Official Ceremonial Flag ({{Lang-es|Bandera Oficial de Ceremonia}}). The flag without the sun is considered the Ornamental Flag ({{Lang|es|Bandera de Ornato}}). While both versions are equally considered the national flag, the ornamental version must always be hoisted below the Official Ceremony Flag. In [[vexillology|vexillological]] terms, the Official Ceremonial Flag is the civil, state and war flag and [[ensign]], while the Ornamental Flag is an alternative civil flag and ensign.

| | |
| ==History==
| |
| [[File:Belgrano y la Bandera.JPG|thumb|[[Manuel Belgrano]] holding the flag.]]
| |
| The flag of Argentina was created by [[Manuel Belgrano]] during the [[Argentine War of Independence]]. While in Rosario he noticed that both the [[Royalist (Spanish American Revolution)|royalist]] and [[Patriot (Spanish American Revolution)|patriotic]] forces were using the same colors, [[Spain]]'s yellow and red. After realizing this, Manuel Belgrano created the [[Cockade of Argentina]], which was approved by the [[First Triumvirate (Argentina)|First Triumvirate]] on February 18, 1812. Encouraged by this success, he created a flag of the same colours nine days later. It used the colors that were used by the ''[[Spanish Criollo peoples|Criollos]]'' during the [[May Revolution]] in 1810. However, recent research and studies would indicate that the colors were chosen from the Spanish [[Order of Charles III]] symbolizing the allegiance to the rightful, and then captive King [[Ferdinand VII]] of Spain. Most portraits about the creation or first uses of the flag show the modern design of it, but the [[flag of Macha]], a very early design kept at the House of Freedom in [[Sucre]], [[Bolivia]] was instead a vertical triband with two white bands and a light blue one in the middle.<ref>[http://www.museonor.gov.ar/bandera.htm La Primera Bandera y su destino] {{es icon}}</ref>
| |
| The flag was first flown, for the soldiers to swear allegiance to it, on 27 February 1812, on the ''Batería Libertad'' (Liberty Battery), by the [[Paraná River]].
| |
| On that day, Belgrano said the following words:
| |
| | |
| {{bquote|Soldiers of the Fatherland, we have heretofore had the glory of wearing [[Cockade of Argentina|the national cockade]]; there (pointing to the Independence battery), on the Independence Battery, where our Government has recently had the honor of bestowing it upon, shall our weapons enlarge their glory. Let us swear to defeat our enemies, internal and external, and South America will become the temple of Independence and Freedom. In testament that you so swear it, say with me: ''LONG LIVE THE FATHERLAND!'' (after the oath) "Lord Captain and troops chosen for the first time for the Independence Battery: go, take possession of it and fulfill the oath you have just sworn today.<ref>{{lang-es|Soldados de la Patria, en este punto hemos tenido la gloria de vestir la escarapela nacional; en aquél (señalando la batería Independencia) nuestras armas aumentarán sus glorias. Juremos vencer a nuestros enemigos interiores y exteriores y la América del Sud será el templo de la '''Independencia''' y de la '''Libertad'''. En fe de que así lo juráis decid conmigo: ¡Viva la Patria!" "Señor capitán y tropa destinada por la primera vez a la batería '''Independencia''': id, posesionaos de ella y cumplid el juramento que acabáis de hacer.}} [http://www.me.gov.ar/efeme/20dejunio/proclama.html Proclama dirigida por M. Belgrano a su ejército al enarbolar por primera vez la bandera]</ref>}}
| |
| | |
| Belgrano dispatched a letter addressed to the First Triumvirate, informing them of the newly created flag. However, unlike with the cockade, the Triumvirate did not accept the use of the flag: the [[international policy]] by the time was to state that the government was ruling on behalf of [[Ferdinand VII]] king of Spain captive of Napoleón, whereas the creation of a flag was a clear [[independentism|independentist]] act. Thus, the triumvirate sent a warning to Belgrano not to fight under the flag, but by the time the reply had arrived, Belgrano had moved to the north, following the previous orders that requested him to strengthen the patriotic position in the Upper Peru after the defeat of [[Juan José Castelli]] at the [[Battle of Huaqui]]. Meanwhile, the flag was hoisted for the first time in [[Buenos Aires]] atop the Saint Nicholas of Bari Church on August 23, 1812; where nowadays the [[Obelisk of Buenos Aires]] is located. Still not knowing about the Triumvirate's refusal, Belgrano raised the flag at [[San Salvador de Jujuy]] and had it blessed by the local church on the second anniversary of the [[May Revolution]]. Belgrano accepted the orders from the Triumvirate by time they arrived to Salta and ended using the flag. As soldiers had already made oaths to the new flag, Belgrano said that he was saving it for the circumstance of a great victory.
| |
| [[File:Bendición de la Bandera en Jujuy.jpg|thumb|left|The priest [[Juan Ignacio Gorriti]] blessing the flag.]]
| |
| The First Triumvirate was later replaced by the Second Triumvirate, with a more liberal ideology, who called the [[Asamblea del Año XIII]]. Despite being one of the original goals, it did not declare independency, and so neither approve the use of a national flag; nevertheless, the flag made by Belgrano was authorized to be used as a [[War flag]]. The first oath to the newly approved flag was on February 13, 1813, next to the [[Salado River (Argentina)|Salado River]], which as also known since then as "''Río Juramento''" ("Oath River"). The first battle fought with the approved flag was the [[Battle of Salta]], a decisive patriotic victory that achieved the complete defeat of royalist [[Pío Tristán]].
| |
| | |
| The flag would be finally declared the [[National flag]] by the [[Congress of Tucumán]] on July 20, 1816, shortly after the [[Argentine Declaration of Independence|declaration of independence]]. The proposal was made by the deputy [[Juan José Paso]] and the text written by the deputy of Charcas, [[José Mariano Serrano|José Serrano]]. On February 25, 1818, the Congress (now working at Buenos Aires) included the [[Sun of May]] in the [[War flag]], after the proposal of deputy Chorroarín. The sun was copied after the one that the first Argentine coin featured in 1813. It was subsequently decided to be part of the regular flag afterwards, and thus the sun no longer represents war.

| |
| | |
| [[José de San Martín]] was aware of the new flag, but did not employ it during the [[Crossing of the Andes]] in 1817. Being a joint operation of both Argentine and Chilean forces, he thought that a new flag would be a better idea than using either the Argentine or Chilean flag. This led to the creation of the Flag of the Andes, used in the Crossing. This flag is currently used as provincial flag by the [[Mendoza province]].
| |
| | |
| On June 8, 1938, president [[Roberto Ortiz]] sanctioned the national law Nº 12.361 declaring June 20 "[[Flag Day]]", a national holiday. The date was decided after the anniversary of Belgrano's death in 1820. In 1957 the [[National Flag Memorial (Argentina)|National Flag Memorial]] (a 10,000 m² monumental complex) was inaugurated in Rosario to commemorate the creation of the flag, and the official Flag Day ceremonies have been customarily conducted in its vicinity since then.
| |
| | |
| In 1978 it was specified, among other measurements, that the Official Ceremony Flag should be 1.4 meters wide and 0.9 meters high, and that the sun must be embroidered.

| ==Design==
| |
| Popular belief attributes the colors to those of the [[sky]], [[cloud]]s and the [[sun]]; some anthems to the flag like "Aurora" or "Salute to the flag" state so as well. However, historians usually disregard such idea, and attribute them to loyalty towards the [[House of Bourbon]].
| |
| | |
| Since the [[May Revolution]], the first times of the [[Argentine War of Independence]] claimed to be acting in behalf of the Spanish King [[Ferdinand VII]], who was prisoner of [[Napoleón Bonaparte]] during the [[Peninsular War]]. Whether such loyalty was real or a trick to conceal independentism is a topic of dispute. The creation of a new flag with those colors would have been then a way to denote autonomy, while keeping the relations with the captive king alive.
| |
| | |
| ===Shape and size===
| |
| From 1978, the flag's official proportions are 9:14, and its official size is 0.9 by 1.4 meters. It features three stripes alternating cerulean blue - white. Each stripe is 30 centimeters high. In the center stripe there is an emblem known as the [[Sun of May]] ({{lang-es|Sol de Mayo}}), a golden sun. The Sun is modeled after the symbol of [[Inti]], the Incan god of the Sun. Flags with proportions of 1:2 and 2:3 are also in use.

| ===Sun of May===
| |
| The sun is called the [[Sun of May]], because it is a replica of an engraving on [[Argentine real|the first Argentine coin]], approved in 1813, whose value was eight ''escudos'' (one Spanish dollar). It has 16 straight and 16 waved sunbeams.
| |
| | |
| In 1978 the sun color was specified to be golden yellow ({{lang|es|amarillo oro}}), to have an inner diameter of 10 cm, and an outer diameter of 25 cm (the diameter of the sun equals <math>5/6</math> the height of the white stripe. The sun's face is <math>2/5</math> of its height). It features 32 rays, 16 undulated and 16 straight, in alternation and from 1978 it must be embroidered in the "Official Flag Ceremony".

| |
| | |
| [[File:Flag of the United Provinces of Central America.svg|thumb|200px|The flag of the [[United Provinces of Central America]].]]
| |
| The Argentine commander [[Louis-Michel Aury]] used the Argentine flag as a model for the blue-white-blue flag of the first independent state in Central America, which was created 1818 in [[San Andrés and Providencia|Isla de Providencia]], an island off the east coast of [[Nicaragua]]. This state existed until approximately 1821, before [[History of Colombia|Colombia]] took over control of these islands. Somewhat later (1823) this flag was again the model for the flag of the [[United Provinces of Central America]],<ref>{{cite book|last=Felipe Pigna|title=Los mitos de la Historia Argentina 2.|year=2005|publisher=Grupo Editorial Planeta S.A.I.C. 2005|location=Argentina|isbn=950-49-1342-3|page=92|url=http://www.elhistoriador.com.ar/libros/mitos2.php}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Belgrano dejó descendencia en América Central|url=http://www.aimdigital.com.ar/aim/2012/08/05/belgrano-dejo-descendencia-en-america-central/|accessdate=June 20, 2013|newspaper=aimdigital|date=August 5, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=El origen de las banderas de centroamérica|url=http://www.mdzol.com/nota/53509/|accessdate=June 20, 2013|newspaper=mdz online|date=June 20, 2008}}</ref> a confederation of the current Central American states of [[Guatemala]], [[Honduras]], [[El Salvador]], [[Nicaragua]] and [[Costa Rica]], which existed from 1823 to 1838. After the dissolution of the Union, the five countries became independent, but even today all of these states except Costa Rica use flags of blue-white-blue stripes (the [[flag of Costa Rica|Costa Rican flag]] has a red stripe superimposed on the white one - the red stripe was added to incorporate all the colors of the French flag). The Argentine flag also inspired the flags of [[flag of Uruguay|Uruguay]] and [[flag of Paraguay|Paraguay]].

| Aquí está la bandera idolatrada,
| |
| la enseña que Belgrano nos legó,
| |
| cuando triste la Patria esclavizada
| |
| con valor sus vínculos rompió.
| |
| | |
| Aquí está la bandera esplendorosa
| |
| que al mundo con sus triunfos admiró,
| |
| cuando altiva en la lucha y victoriosa
| |
| la cima de los Andes escaló.
| |
| | |
| Aquí está la bandera que un día
| |
| en la batalla tremoló triunfal
| |
| y, llena de orgullo y bizarría,
| |
| a San Lorenzo se dirigió inmortal. | |
| | |
| Aquí está, como el cielo refulgente,
| |
| ostentando sublime majestad,
| |
| después de haber cruzado el Continente,
| |
| exclamando a su paso: ¡Libertad!
| |
| ¡Libertad! ¡Libertad!

| Here is the idolized flag,
| |
| the flag that Belgrano left to us,
| |
| when the sad enslaved Homeland
| |
| bravely broke its bonds.
| |
| | |
| Here is the splendorous flag
| |
| that surprised the world with its victory,
| |
| when arrogant and victoriously during the fight
| |
| climbed the top of the Andes.
| |
| | |
| Here is the flag that one day
| |
| triumphantly rose in the middle of the battle
| |
| and, full of pride and gallantry,
| |
| went immortally to San Lorenzo.
| |
| | |
| Here it is, like the shining sky,
| |
| showing sublimate majesty
| |
| after having crossed the continent
| |
| shouting in its way: "Freedom!"
| |
| " Freedom! Freedom!"
