The Flag

It's always important to know a little bit about the flag of a country you are interested in. The white of the flag represents the snow of the Andes, the red represents the blood of patriots who fought for independence, the blue represents the blue of the skies and the five pointed single star is the emphasise the fact that Chile is an Unitarian republic as opposed to a Federal republic.
