Estreleira

The estreleira is the flag used by Galician nationalists of left-of-centre to far-left ideological allegiance. This flag merges the Galician national flag (a blue band on a white background) with a red star (a symbol of socialism created in the Soviet Union in the early 20th century). The estreleira flag was created by communist activists of the UPG (Unión do Povo Galego) in the 1960s, correlating the red star to the stars in the flags of many Socialist countries, in particular Yugoslavia.
