About the flag
It is one of the few national flags with a different design on each side: the front shows the national coat of arms and the back shows a lion and the motto Paz y Justicia.
How to spot it: Red, white, blue horizontal bands with a round emblem in the centre; the Netherlands and Luxembourg have the same stripes but no emblem.
Often confused with: 🇳🇱 Netherlands 🇱🇺 Luxembourg
