About the flag
The gold armillary sphere, an old navigation instrument, celebrates Portugal’s Age of Discoveries, when its sailors explored the oceans and reached Africa, India and Brazil.
How to spot it: Unequal split of green (hoist) and red, with the armillary sphere and shield sitting on the dividing line.
