The flag of Andorra is based on the flags of Spain and France, the two states which are responsible to protect the independence of this small state.
Comprising three vertical bars of blue, yellow, and red, the national flag of Andorra consists of the nation's coat of arms in the centre. These colors represent Andorra'a independence from both France and Spain, as blue and red were taken from France, while red and yellow were taken from Spain.
The coat of arms contains the motto at the bottom which translates as "Strength United is Stronger."
