About the flag
The yellow band fills the whole top half of the flag. Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela all share these colours from Gran Colombia, the union led by Simón Bolívar.
How to spot it: Yellow on the top half, then blue and red, with no emblem; Ecuador adds a coat of arms, and Venezuela has equal stripes and an arc of stars.
Often confused with: 🇪🇨 Ecuador 🇻🇪 Venezuela
