The current eight stars flag of Venezuela was introduced in 2006. The basic design includes a horizontal tricolor of yellow, blue, and red, dating to the original flag introduced in 1811, in the Venezuelan War of Independence. Further modifications have involved including a set of stars, multiple changes to the placement and number of stars and inclusion of an optional coat of arms at the upper-left corner. Along with the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Afghanistan, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Bolivia, and El Salvador it is one of only eight national flags in the world which has a depiction of its flag within the flag itself.
