The eastern half of the island of Hispaniola, now known as the Dominican Republic, is the earliest of all the European colonies in the western hemisphere. The settlement of Santo Domingo is established on the south coast in 1496 by Diego Columbus, younger brother of the explorer. It becomes the main base for Spanish activities until the conquest of Mexico.
Two colonies grew on Hispaniola, one Spanish and the other French. Both brought thousands of African slaves to work the land. In 1804, after a 70-year struggle, the French colony gained independence. In 1821 colonists in Santo Domingo declared their independence from Spain. Haiti, which had long aspired to unify the island, promptly invaded its neighbor and occupied it for more than two decades. But Dominicans never accepted Haitian rule and on February 27, 1844, Juan Pablo Duarte - considered the father of the country - led a bloodless coup and reclaimed Dominican autonomy.
The banner of the Dominican Republic was received on November 6th, 1844. The Dominican Flag, includes a focused white cross that stretches out to the edges and partitions the banner into four rectangles. The top ones are blue and red, and the base ones are red and blue. The real hues are ultramarine blue and vermilion red. The first hues are gotten from the shades of the Haitian banner.
The primary Dominican Republic banner was made by Ms. Maria Trinidad Sanchez and Ms. Concepcion Bona, It flew surprisingly upon the arrival of Dominican autonomy, February 27, 1844, and it was somewhat diverse, including the main two quadrants blue and the last two red, it wasn't until 1908 that the substituting hues came to be.
The "coat of arms" or shield resides in the center of the flag. This emblem is similar to the flag design and shows a bible, a cross of gold, 4 Dominican flags and two spears on a pattern from the flag. there are branches of olive and palm around the shield and above on a ribbon is the motto "Dios, Patria, Libertad" meaning "God, Fatherland, Liberty". Below the shield is the name of the country "República Dominicana" appears on a red ribbon (this red ribbon is depicted in more recent versions as having its tips pointing upward).
In the center of the shield, flanked by three lances on every side, is a Bible with a little cross above it and said to be opened to the Gospel of John, either to part one or section 8, verse 32, which peruses Y la Verdad nos hará libre. The Flag Company Inc spent significant time in banner plans offered an extraordinary version of decals and banners to retain the historical backdrop of Dominican Flag for the future generations.
