Summary

Description

Español: Bandera de México

La actual bandera de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos, llamada la Cuarta Bandera Nacional, fue adoptada por decreto el 16 de septiembre de 1968 y fue confirmada por ley el 24 de febrero de 1984. La versión utilizada hoy en día es una adaptación del diseño aprobado en 1916 por decreto del Presidente Venustiano Carranza, en donde el perfil del águila fue cambiado de frente a perfil izquierdo; Las tonalidades oficiales exactas de la bandera aún no han sido definidas por las leyes mexicanas, pero la Secretaria de Gobernación sugiere usar las siguientes de acuerdo al sistema pantone: Verde 3425c y Rojo 186c.

La descripción oficial de la Bandera Nacional está dispuesta en el artículo 3° de la Ley sobre el Escudo, la Bandera y el Himno Nacionales de 1984 y a la letra dice: La Bandera Nacional consiste en un rectángulo dividido en tres franjas verticales de medidas idénticas, con los colores en el siguiente orden a partir del asta: verde, blanco y rojo. En la franja blanca y al centro, tiene el Escudo Nacional, con un diámetro de tres cuartas partes del ancho de dicha franja. La proporción entre anchura y longitud de la bandera, es de cuatro a siete. Podrá llevar un lazo o corbata de los mismos colores, al pie de la moharra
