Description of the flag

Flag with coat of arms

New coat of arms has been accepted in 1992!
Jan Zrzavy, 01 Sep 1999

Iʼm not sure which of these is the new coat of arms.

version #1

version #2

This coat of arms, from http://www.bolivian.com/himnos/beni.html, is much better looking, with brighter colors and clearer design — but it is also slightly different: The several scenes depicted on the divisions of the shield are different in many details, and shows the name of the department on the top of the shield, absent from the other version.

Flag-related departmental anthem

Second stanza of the departmental hymn, from http://www.bolivian.com/himnos/beni.html:

El verde que flamea en mi bandera,
emblema de esperanza y de grandeza,
es la imagen del Beni, la riqueza
de esta sierra feliz de promisión.
