Significado de la Bandera

The flag of Greenland features two equal horizontal bands of white (top) and red (bottom) with a counter-changed red-and-white disc slightly to the hoist side of centre. The entire flag measures 18 by 12 parts; each stripe measures six parts; the disc is eight parts in diameter, horizontally offset by seven parts from the hoist to the centre of the circle, and vertically centred. To honour the 10th anniversary of the flag, the Greenland Post Office issued commemorative postage stamps and a leaflet by the flag's creator.
