At the end of the Mexican War of Independence (1810-1821), the Army of the Three Guarantees (Spanish: Ejercito Trigaranteor Ejercito de las Tres Garantias) was the name given to the army after the unification of the Spanish troops led by Agustin de Iturbide and the Mexican insurgent troops of Vicente Guerrero, consolidating Mexico's independence from Spain.
At first, the meaning of the colors of the Army of the Three Guarantees was:
- Green: was a sign of independence from Spain.
- White: Religion, faith or belief, the Roman Catholic faith.
- Red: Union among Americans and Europeans
However the meaning of these colors have varied considerably with the passage of time. The last accepted, modern definitions are:
- Green: Hope in the future.
- White: Unity among the Mexican people.
- Red: The blood of the Mexican heroes.
In the middle white segment there is an eagle with a snake on its beak standing on top of a cactus, which is the Mexican coat of arms and has a meaning on its own.
