Puerto Rico is quite commonly known as the 51st state of America although it is actually a commonwealth of the USA and not a state at all. The phrase ‘51st state’ is one that is often heard and refers to areas or locales which have been or are being seriously considered candidates for United States statehood. This has led to some confusion over how many states there really are!
The flag Puerto Rico was adopted on July in the year of 1952. The flag of Puerto Rico is comprised of five alternating white and red stripes, and a blue triangle on the hoist side, with a white star in the center of the triangle.
The Puerto Rican flag was first designed in 1892 by the members of the Puerto Rican Revolutionary Committee. After the United States annexed the territory of Puerto Rico, the national flag's use was banned from 1898 to 1952. The flag was adopted as the official flag of Puerto Rico in 1952.
The Puerto Rican flag consists of 5 alternate red and white stripes. On the left of the flag is a single white five-pointed star resting in a blue triangle. The symbolism is explained thus.
Designed in 1890 the five-pointed white star represents the commonwealth of Puerto Rico, whilst the three sided triangle signifies the three branches (executive, legislative and judicial) of the republican government. The three red stripes show the blood that feeds the three branches and the two white signify the rights of man and the freedom of the individual.
There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Puerto Rico flags being imported and sold, that do not comply with the flag statute. This is bad for a number of reasons. Some flags are cheaply made and more importantly, the designs, materials, colors, and methods of printing do not compare well with the better quality, longer-lasting, and correctly designed flags. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Puerto Rico future.
