Hey, geography-peeps welcome back to flag-fan Friday aka. The videos that get the least amount of views on this channel
I get it
You just want to watch the country episodes
But flags and symbolism is important to learn about so yeah plus you guys get to honor yourselves
And your countries when I open your mail, so this is for you. Don't you like you anyways?
Let's talk about Honduras without further ado
So Honduras's flag has a little cute story behind it. The flag is a horizontal bi-color of three bands, two blue with one white
in the middle. In the middle of the white band lives five
Cerulean stars the two blue bands represent the two coasts of Honduras on the Caribbean Sea in the Pacific Ocean the white band represents the
Land between the water as well as peace, prosperity, and purity of the people.
peace prosperity and purity of the people wow that is quite the alliteration.
The five stars in the middle represent their friends the five nations of the former
Federal Republic of Central America that they used to belong to in addition to themselves
There's El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Guatemala
Ah they love their siblings now that was easy however the court of arms is a lot more complex
But very cool looking the image contains an oval Banner reading republic of Honduras free sovereign and independent
bordering an illustration of a pyramid triangle representing
equality and freedom with a volcano between two towers representing defense and readiness the sun and Rainbow hang overhead then you have the ocean and
Cornucopias and quiver of arrows representing the indigenous peoples tropical flowers oak and pine trees tools
Limestone cliffs and mine entrances
Representing the resources of the land now keep in mind this coat of arms was influenced off of the former Federal republic of Central America's
Coat of Arms which had a similar configuration and would eventually influence El Salvador and Nicaragua man Central America is tight you guys are like
Conjoined quintuplets although be horrifying. Alright. So that's that now you know what time it is. Geography fanmail time. So here's the deal
I wasn't really expecting to get a lot of stuff from you guys because let's be honest every time I go on a research
Hiatus this channel gets fewer views, fewer people subscribe, so I personally thought the fan mail was going to go down however
This is the most I've ever received so I'm going to open some of these however
I won't be able to open all them however
I will be doing a live stream opening these packages the ones that I miss on Saturday, so check it out
It'll be on Facebook
