Flag of Ecuador
The flag of Ecuador has three horizontal stripes of yellow, blue and red, with the yellow stripe taking up the upper half. In the center is the national coat of arms, which shows a condor above an oval scene of Mount Chimborazo, the Guayas River with a steamship, and a sun with signs of the zodiac. Without the coat of arms, the flag looks much like Colombia's.
