Flag of Mapuche - Black Coffee Mug

The Flag of Mapuche refers to the official symbol representing the Mapuche people, an indigenous ethnic group primarily residing in south-central Chile and southwestern Argentina. This flag was officially adopted on March 20, 1967, during the International Congress of the Mapuche People held in Temuco, Chile. The design of the Flag of Mapuche is based on a horizontal tricolor arrangement with three equally sized vertical stripes: blue (representing the sky and the southern Patagonian ice cap), white (symbolizing the snow and peace), and red (embodying the blood of their ancestors who fought for their land). At the center, there is a black square containing a star (representing unity) surrounded by four smaller stars (representing the four nations of the Mapuche: Huilliche, Pehuenches, Raizal, and Kolloncins). The Flag of Mapuche plays a significant role in expressing the cultural identity and pride of the Mapuche people. It is often used during ceremonies, festivals, and political demonstrations that celebrate their heritage and promote their rights.
