Cost Rica Flag Revised 1848-1906. The coat of arms of Cost Rica Flag was also revised in 1848 and placed in
the center of the flag. In 1906, when the coat of arms was modified,
the update was placed in a white disk on the flag's red stripe, and later
on an oval, set toward the hoist.
The coat of arms depicts the isthmus between the Pacific ocean and the Caribbean Sea, with 3 volcanoes. The 7 stars stand for the 7 provinces of Costa Rica. The Spanish name of the country is placed on a white banner, Republica de Costa Rica (Republic of Costa Rica), and the Central American union is recognized in the blue upper scroll, recalling the former United Provinces of Central America.
