The flag of Puerto Rico consists of five horizontal stripes, three red and two alternating white and superimposed on the strips a blue equilateral triangle, one of whose sides forms the end of the flag next to the flagpole. The color of the triangle is blue. A white five-pointed star is placed above the triangle, placed so that one of its points points upwards.The flag symbolizes the brotherhood in the revolutionary struggle between the Cuban and the Puerto Rican people, due to the fact that the Puerto Rican separatist group that adopted the design of the flag as emblem of their group, the Section of Puerto Rico, was associated with The Cuban separatists who fought with identical ideals under the Cuban Revolutionary Party. This flag was raised for the first time during La Atententona de Yauco in 1897, when Puerto Rico was still under Spanish domination.
