The flag of Liguria is one of the official symbols of the region of Liguria, Italy. The current flag was adopted on 7 July 1997.[1][2]
Symbolism
Each color has the following meaning:[3]
- The green represents the Ligurian Alps and the Ligurian Apennines;
- The red represents the blood shed for Italian unification;
- The blue represents the Ligurian Sea.
At the center of the flag is the coat of arms of Liguria: a stylized caravel, symbolizing the maritime traditions of the region and its great navigators, positioned below the historical flag of the Republic of Genoa (the current flag of the modern-day city of Genoa). The four six-pointed stars imposed on the Genovese flag represent the four provinces of Liguria: the Province of Genoa, the Province of Imperia, the Province of La Spezia, and the Province of Savona.[4]
