Colombia vs Venezuela flag
Both use yellow, blue and red bands, because both come from the flag of Gran Colombia.
Both are drawn on the same 4:3 canvas here, so differences in official proportions do not show.
How to tell them apart
- Venezuela has equal bands and an arc of white stars on the blue.
- Colombia has a yellow band twice the height of the others and no stars.
