The Mexican flag is a vertical tricolor of green, white, and red with the national coat of arms charged in the center of the white stripe.
Colors and Symbolism: The colors of the flag originally had specific meanings: green represented hope, white represented purity, and red represented religion. However, the meanings have changed over time. Today, it is widely accepted that green represents hope, white represents unity, and red represents the blood of national heroes.
The Coat of Arms: The center of the flag features the Mexican coat of arms, which depicts a golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus devouring a serpent. This symbol is derived from an Aztec legend about the founding of Tenochtitlan (modern-day Mexico City). According to the legend, the Aztecs were told to build their city where they found an eagle devouring a serpent on a cactus. You can find more detailed information about it at Coat%20of%20Arms

History: The current design was adopted on September 16, 1968, but the overall design has been in use since 1821, with some modifications. The first national flag was created after Mexico achieved independence from Spain. You can find more detailed information about it at History
