[edit] Sumário

Idealizada pelo artista francês Jean-Baptiste Debret por ocasião da proclamação da independência (1822). O verde representa a casa de Bragança, à qual pertencia o imperador Pedro I do Brasil, e o amarelo, à casa de Habsburgo (à qual pertencia a imperatriz Maria Leopoldina). No centro, figuravam as armas do império. Este símbolo, no centro do losango, foi substituído na proclamação da república pela abóboda estrelada, respeitando a configuração do céu à noite de 15 de novembro de 1889, no Rio de Janeiro. A cada estrela corresponde um estado da federação. A estrela que fica acima da linha representa o Pará, único estado brasileiro à epoca cuja capital ficava acima da linha do Equador. O dístico "Ordem e Progresso", escrito em letras verdes sobre fundo branco, foi adotado da filosofia positivista de Auguste Comte, que inspirou o movimento militar republicano.
English: The flag of Brazil. The meanings differ from the original flag, in which the green represented the House of Braganza -- to which Emperor D. Peter I of Brazil was member -- and the yellow the House of Habsburg -- to which Empress D. Mary Leopoldine was member.
Each star represents a Brazilian state, according to the way the constellations were set by the night of November 15th, 1889. Officially, the star above the white line represents the only one Brazilian state capital which was above the line of Equator by the time of the proclamation of the Republic: Belém do Pará.
