The canton (capital, Santiago de Méndez) was formed on 13
November 1911.
Information on the flag seems to have been removed from the provincial
website. Text given previously: "The flag is divided in
three equal horizontal stripes; it is rectangular with bright
colours representing the roads and inhabitants of the canton. Red
represents the previous and current sacrifice of the inhabitants.
Yellow represents the particular locations of Méndez and related
places on lands rich in gold, whose colour is the most relevant
representation of wealth. Green is the genuine symbol of the
eastern places in which reflects the huge ocean of hope made of
the forests."
