0090 Cuba Flag of Country FOTW58

Sender myself via a friend traveling in Cuba.






The national flag of Cuba consists of five alternating stripes (three blue and two white) and a red equilateral triangle at the hoist, within which is a white five-pointed star. It was designed in 1849 and officially adopted May 20, 1902.
It is one of the two flags of a currently communist country (besides Laos) that does not use any communist symbolism.
