The Flag of the Dominican Republic features a centered white cross that extends to the edges and divides the flag into four rectangles —the top ones are blue (hoist side) and red, and the bottom ones are red (hoist side) and blue. In the state and war flag and ensign, a small coat of arms featuring a shield supported by an olive branch (left) and a palm branch (right) is at the center of the cross; above the shield a blue ribbon displays the national motto, Dios, Patria, Libertad (God, Fatherland, Liberty), and below the shield, Republica Dominicana appears on a red ribbon.
