Brazil, South America’s largest and most populous nation, is a global power and staunch proponent of multilateralism. Yet it still grapples with social inequity and environmental degradation issues. Under President Jair Bolsonaro’s watch, foreign policy ties between China and the US have increased while strengthening Brazilian prominence as an influential regional player.

Brazil (Portuguese: bandeira do Brasil) officially adopted their national flag (bandeira do Brasil) on 19 November 1889 four days after proclaiming a Republic. It features a blue disc depicting a starry sky that includes the Southern Cross and is framed by an inscribed yellow rhombus bearing their national motto of Order and Progresso framed by an arched band – all set against a blue background containing yellow hues to signify sunlight. This design first saw formal adoption four days after Proclamation of Republic.

Brazilian law mandates that the flag be displayed daily at Praca dos Tres Poderes in Brasilia and at both presidential palaces (Palacio da Alvorada and Palacio do Planalto), ministries, federal district institutions and offices belonging to Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches; such as those at Congress, Supreme Federal Tribunal and Supreme Court seats as well as military facilities, diplomatic missions merchant navy units or any official sites where Brazilian laws require flag display or use. Flags no longer suitable for use must be delivered directly to a military facility before being burned during a special ceremony held on 19 November (Flag Day).

The 27 stars on a celestial globe represent state and federal districts. Spica represents the northernmost portion of the country while Polaris Australis (Sigma Octantis) stands for South Pole. The other stars, numbered from top to bottom, represent constellations that form a meridian; their placement on the flag signifies how states and federal districts relate to one another. Current star arrangement was altered three times: 1960 (with Guanabara being represented by one star), 1968 (when Acre and Roraima states were created), and 1992, when four more stars were added for Amapa, Rondonia and Tocantins States.
