Overview
The Republic of New Granada was a centralist unitary republic consisting primarily of present-day Colombia and Panama with smaller portions of today's Costa Rica, Ecuador, Venezuela, Peru and Brazil that existed from 1831 to 1858. The state was created after the dissolution of Gran Colombia in 1830 through the secession of Ecuador and Venezuela. In 1858, the state was renamed into the Granadine Confederation.
The national flag, with the Gran Colombian colours in Veles' arrangement, was adopted on 9 May 1834 and used until 26 November 1861. The merchant ensign had the eight-pointed star in white.
