[edit] Where could I get those provincial flags?
It is the very first time that I have seen that the provinces (and the islands) have flags. Is it true? If so, where could I get a drawing of them and the laws about them? --66.98.79.188 15:04, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Are you sure of those flags?
Are you sure that those flags are official or is it something that you thought that it would be nice to draw? The explanations are very interesting but they seems to have been written for children. And, why are there flags for the regions and the islands? Those regions are not official and so those flags do not represent anything; the islands are not independent and they are part of provinces so they are represented, in any case, by the flags of their provinces? --Pepemar2 (talk) 22:11, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
I repeat that we need more official information about those flags: were they created by laws or decrees? Or have you imagined what to draw? Where to get official information about those flags? And, why that flag for the Hermanas Mirabal province (the old province of Salcedo), created long before the death of the sisters? And the same for La Romana province, with a castle that you say is Altos de Chavón but the province is older than the private enterprise Altos de Chavón. --Pepemar2 (talk) 00:13, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
The explanation given for the colors, stripes and other aspects of the designs are childish and, often, with false information. For example, in the Azua province says that the two stripes represent the 2 provinces that were created with territory of Azua: Benefactor and José Trujillo Valdéz. And Barahona? And the José Trujillo Valdéz was created with territory of the Trujillo Province, at least the portion that correspond to the present Peravia province. --Pepemar2 (talk) 01:12, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
