It was the country's national flag, adopted 1889 from monarchy to republic. The background is green and yellow, with a yellow diamond in the center and a blue circle full of stars that emulate the night sky. Green relates to Brazil's lush forests and hope for the future, and yellow to green represents its extensive natural resources. Twenty-seven white five-pointed stars surrounded by a blue circle represent the 27 states, and a further star represents the country's Federal District.
