The left side band of green occupies a two-fifth of the ensign’s length, while the right-hand red band adopts the remaining.
A coat of arms with Portugal’s conventional shield is centralized on the Portuguese flag where the two shades of the flag congregate.
Red interprets the Portuguese uprising in 1910 while Green symbolizes optimism. Five blue shields graced with five white dots comprise the white shield.
These blue shields indicate conquest over five Moresque kings while the five dots and cross signifies Christianity.
At the back of the arms, a navigation device observes Prince Henry the Navigator, who initiated the marine expedition of Portugal.
