Best Answer

The Dominican Republic flag consists of a centered white cross that extends to the edges and divides the flag into four rectangles - the top ones are blue (hoist side) and red, and the bottom ones are red (hoist side) and blue The white = peace and honesty, the red = hardiness, bravery, strength & valour and the blue = vigilance, truth and loyalty, perseverance & justice. The flag was designed by the leader of the Trinitarians who altered the layout of the blue and red of the Haitian flag and placed a large white cross over it to symbolize faith

The colors on the Puerto Rican flag have much symbolism. The white stands for victory and peace of an independent country. The red on the flag is used to symbolize the bloodshed of warriors. The blue is significant of the sky and coastal waters. The white lone store stands for the island itself.

The Blue is for Liberty. Red is for the blood of Patriots, White is for Salvation. This is repeated in text on the country’s coat of arms, where a ribbon on the top of the shield states: “Dios, Patria, Libertad” which translates to “God, Patriotism or Fatherland, Liberty”
