The Flag of Civil Freedom, in Spanish, called Bandera Nacional de Nuestra Libertad Civil is an important historical flag of Argentina. It was donated to the inhabitants of the city of San Salvador de Jujuy by Manuel Belgrano, one of the Libertadores of the state, during the War of Independence. On 29 November 1994, the Jujuy Province adopted this design as its flag. The original flag is 1.40 m high and 0.90 m wide, white in color, and has the coat of arms of the Assembly of the Year XIII in the center.[1]
