The middle part of Portugal's flag is made with several elements.

The yellow lines represent the globe and the former Portuguese colonial empire, as were the Portuguese that discovered the sea routes to sub-sarian Africa, South America and India, and were the first European ever to arrive at Indonesia, China and Japan.

The seven castles and the blue shields are part of the shield of arms, as it was since the king Afonso III, in the 13th century.
