Translated from municipal
web site:
"The municipal flag of La Esperanza is made of three
colours, white, yellow and gree. White, located in the upper part
of the flag, means peace and tranquillity, proper characteristics
of the villagers: peace is understood here as the inner stage of
the mind required to have good social relations with the others.
Yellow, located in the middle of the flag, means the rich
fertility of the soils. The lower stripe is green, meaning hope
[in Spanish, "esperanza"] into a better future."
