Image of the Flag of Panama

Today, the flag of Panama flies in celebration of one of two independence days celebrated in this Central American nation. The celebration today is of Panama’s independence from Spain in 1821. After gaining independence from Spain, Panama joined the Republic of Greater Columbia. On November 3, 1903 Panama separated from Columbia to form the nation that is still in existence today.
