Centered on the flag is a large white disk bearing the coat of arms which is held by a mestizo and a man of African descent. The colors on the flag represent the country’s political parties. The blue color is the color of the People’s United Party (PUP). The red stripe color recognizes the colors of the opposition party – the United Democratic Party (UDP). The centered coat of arm features a shield flanked by two workers in front of a mahogany tree with the related motto SUB-UMBRA FLOREO (I Flourish in the Shade) on a scroll at the bottom. It is encircled by a green garland of 50 mahogany leaves, symbolizing the year 1950 in which PUP (People's United Party) came into power. The various elements of the coat of arms - the figures, the tools, the mahogany tree, and the garland of leaves - recall the logging industry that led to the British settlement of Belize. The flag has a width-to-length proportion ratio of 3:5. </p><h3>History of the Flag of Belize </h3><p>Being a British colony, the colonial flag of Belize displayed the Union Jack in the canton of a blue field along with the nation’s coat of arms. Until 1981, this was the official flag of Belize. An unofficial national flag of Belize was used by its citizens since 1950. It displayed the country’s coat of arms in a white disc on a solid blue field without the Union Jack. It was also the first flag that the government had planned to adopt when the country gained independence. But due to complaints from the opposition party, the ruling party changed the design to the modern one to also include the colors of the opposition party. </p> </section> <section class="mod_slider_wrapper"> <h3 id="history" class="anchor_point">Historical Flags Of Belize</h3> <div id="flag_slider" class="flag_slide_list mod_slider_container slider_disable_nav"> <div class="swiper-wrapper"> <div class="slide swiper-slide"> <h4 class="slide_heading">Flag of British Honduras/Belize </h4> <figure class="content_media_fixed"> <picture class="slide_media_wrapper media_shadow" style="padding-top: 50%;"> <img loading="lazy" src="/r/w425/upload/a6/a1/14/1280px-flag-of-british-honduras-1919-1981-svg.png" alt="Flag of British Honduras/Belize used from 1919 to 1981"> </picture> <figcaption>Flag of British Honduras/Belize used from 1919 to 1981</figcaption> </figure> </div> </div> <div class="swiper-pagination"></div> <div class="mod_slider_prev icon-left-open"></div> <div class="mod_slider_next icon-right-open"></div> </div> </section> <h2 id="symbols" class="anchor_point">Symbols of Belize</h2> <section class="flag_content"> <h3 id="symbol-the-national-coat-of-arms-of-belize" class="anchor_point">The National Coat of Arms of Belize</h3> <div class="symbol_media_wrapper media_right"> <figure class="content_media_fixed"> <picture style="padding-top: 100%;"> <img id="symbol_media" src="https://www.worldatlas.com/r/w400/webimage/countrys/namerica/camerica/belize/bzpics/descriptionpics/bzcoat.gif" alt="National Coat of Arms of Belize" loading="lazy" itemprop="url"> </picture> </figure> </div> <ul></ul><p>The Coat of Arms of Belize was adopted in 1981 upon independence. The shield of the Coat of Arms is divided into three sections by a vertical line and an inverted V. The base section represents a ship in full sail on waves of the sea. The two upper sections show tools of the timber industry in Belize: a paddle and a squaring axe in the right section; and a saw and a beating axe in the left section. Supporting the shield are two woodcutters, the one on the right holding a beating axe over his shoulder in his right hand, and the one on the left holding a paddle over his shoulder in his left hand. A wreath of 25 leaves encircles the Coat of Arms. Above the shield rises a mahogany tree. Below the shield is the motto scroll: SUB UMBRA FLOREO (I Flourish in the Shade). The Coat of Arms embodies an important aspect of the history of Belize, as the mahogany industry formed the basis of the Belizean economy in the 18th and 19th centuries. </p><p><strong>National Motto:</strong> </p><p>"Sub Umbra Floreo" " Under the shade (of the mahogany tree) I flourish.

The one-cent coin assumed the shape of a scallop in 1956 after its diminishing size in the year 1954. </p><h3>Banknotes </h3><p>The introduction of notes in various denominations by the government under the Board of Commissioners between 1894 and 1976.

During 1973, British Honduras's name got replaced by Belize leading to a circulation of various notes bearing the country name in years to come. On January 1, 1982, Belize’s Central Bank came into being after the enactment of Central Bank of Belize Act No.15, and the first note produced bearing the country name came on July 1, 1983. </p> </section> <section class="mod_slider_wrapper"> <div id="current_currency_slider" class="flag_slide_list mod_slider_container slider_disable_nav_tb slider_disable_nav_dt"> <div class="swiper-wrapper"> <div class="slide swiper-slide"> <h3 class="slide_heading">Belize dollar Banknote</h3> <figure class="content_media_fixed"> <picture class="slide_media_wrapper" style="padding-top: 47.35%;"> <img loading="lazy" src="/r/w425/upload/14/b7/6e/shutterstock-310459271.jpg" alt="5 Belize dollars banknote.
