A captain of Uruguayan army named Angel Camblor created this flag. It symbolises the Spanish race on the American continent, Philippines Islands, Maghreb, Equatorial Guinea and the Iberian Peninsula in the past and the future. The three cross are the carabelles of Colon and the purple is for Castille; the white is the purity and the sun is the light.
