Description
Submitted to the March flag contest on r/vexillology.

My justification:

"The current flag of Puerto Rico, designed in New York, based on the Cuban flag, itself designed in New York and based upon on the flag of the United States of America and a desire to become a state of the United States of America, stands to be decolonized - a general interest I myself have dabbled in, as a Puerto Rican.
The colors and symbology of the flag are as follows: the Spanish Red for the blood shed by the island in its course for independence against Spain and the United States of America in an ascending manner and symbolic of number and years of the struggle undertaken to do so; the White for the hopeful future with the triangle representing the three pillars of liberty, justice, and democracy; the five point Gold star for the island itself and its wealth, material or human, pointed outwards for a hopeful advancement; and the Spanish Blue triangle standing for the encompassing sea which surrounds and provides for Puerto Rico and the thee cornerstone industries of shipping, fishing, and medicine."
