Cuba's
Flag
The Lone Star'-flag,
is Cuba's present flag. In 1902 Cuba became an independent republic and
the flag was
adopted as the official flag. The three blue stripes are the symbols
of the original three provinces.
The triangle is a masonic symbol, here meaning everybody is equal,
liberty and a group of people sharing common jobs or intrests. The red
color is for the blood sacrificed by the Cuban veterans.
In 1864 And so it was: Three light blue stripes, later changed to ocean blue, representing Cuba's three sections at the time, Western, Central and Eastern. The two white stripes representing the purity and justice of the patriotic liberators' motives. While the lone white star within the equilateral red traingle represents the unity of our people upon the blood spilled by our revolutionary heroes.

In
honor of Cespedes and
the bravery of the residents of Bayamo, who during the 10 Year War
burned the beautiful city to the ground and moved to the forrest
rather than surrender it to the Spaniards, Bayamo was named as a
"National Monument" and from then on would have its name proceeded by
the initials M.N. for "Monumento Nacional." Since Cuba gained
independence
from Spain, the flag of Bayamo is shown alongside the
Cuban national flag at official ceremonies and events.
