    The narrator really did his homework, but he missed 1 thing abt uniqueness of our PH Flag 🇵🇭.. 1) If the Blue color is on top, it means the country is in Peace. And if the Red color is on top, the country is at War..

  • @bryantpark88
    @bryantpark88 2 ปีที่แล้ว +82

    The video failed to discuss one important and unique characteristic of the Philippine flag. The position of the colors blue and red when displayed would indicate whether the Philippines is either in a state of war or peace. When the blue is on top (if displayed horizontally) or on the left (if displayed vertically), the country is in a state of peace. Displayed inversely with the red on top or on the left respectively, the country is in a state of war.
    The Philippines is about 90% Christian with around 80% of the population adhering to Catholicism making it the 3rd largest Catholic country after Brazil and Mexico. Around 5-6% are Muslim and the rest, other religions or non at all.

    "Katipunan". From the word "tipon", meaning "to gather".
    I was a bit disappointed that the video didn't mention the KKK (not the racist one lol) but The Katipunan was enough. The Katipunan in general was just the KKK. They had their own flag, too, which was red and had "K K K" on it in white text. The video was pretty good. I'm ok with it.

    It is also worth mentioning that it is mentioned in our constitution that the State and the Church are separated so I don't think any religious symbol should be included. There are many different religions here and it would be unfair to them if only the major religious symbols are included in the flag.

    Besides freemasonry, the white triangle also represents equality (or in Filipino as "pagkapantay-pantay"). The red color represents war and the blue color represents peace and order.

    The Philippine Flag is perfect as it is. it literally discusses the whole history of the country without too much emphasis or too much symbols in it. The Muslim population asking for a moon in it shouldn't a thing to discuss no offence but there is no religious symbol in the flag and the state( mainly in laws making) and religion shouldn't interfere with each other.

    The 3 stars represent the 3 main cluster islands namely, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao not Luzon, Mindanao, and Panay. Also, the colors red, and blue signifies something depending which color is on top of the other. Blue signifies the country is in peaceful situation, and when red is on top it means the country is at war. The white color in the flag signifies clarity, or purity.

    The blue (the top color on the Philippines flag)
    means peace and the red one (below the Philippines flag) and it means war so
    right now the blue one is on the top of the Philippines flag because it is peace time and
    not war time.

    Some forgotten parts in the video
    1. If you invert the flag where the Red is right-side up is an indication for state of war or the Country is under seige.
    Also they forgot the MANY REVOLUTIONARY Flags dawned by many revolutionary forces during the spanish-filipino /spanish-american /Filipino-American wars.
    And you should know the meaning of every color designation not just the design meaning.

    Bayang magiliw,
    Perlas ng silanganan,
    Alab ng puso
    Sa dibdib mo’y buhay.
    Lupang hinirang,
    Duyan ka ng magiting,
    Sa manlulupig
    Di ka pasisiil.
    Sa dagat at bundok,
    Sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw,
    May dilag ang tula
    At awit sa paglayang minamahal.
    Ang kislap ng watawat mo’y
    Tagumpay na nagniningning;
    Ang bituin at araw niya,
    Kailan pa ma’y di magdidilim.
    Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati’t pagsinta,
    Buhay ay langit sa piling mo;
    Aming ligaya na ‘pag may mang-aapi,
    Ang mamatay nang dahil sa ‘yo.
