- Who was the country of Colombia named after?
- What do the stripes of the Colombian flag represent?
- How long before we meet our children?
Well, for fun and just general FYI:
- The country of Colombia is the only country named after Christopher Colombus.
- Two interpretatons: 1) The yellow symbolizes sovereignty and justice; the blue nobility, loyalty and vigilance; and the red valor, honor, generosity and victory achieved at the high cost of bloodshed. 2) Yellow: universal liberty; blue: the equality of all races and social classes before God and the law; Red: fraternity
A very popular Colombian kids song says.... YELLOW is our gold BLUE is our vast seas (oceans) and RED is the blood that gave us our freedom... - Anywhere between 9 - 12 months!!! Our dossier hasn't left for Colombia, yet; however, the check included with the dossier has cleared & it should leave sometime next week!
