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 with a red star. The estreleira flag was created by communist activists of the UPG in the 1960s, correlating the red star to the stars in the flags of many Socialist countries, in particular Yugoslavia.
All the nationalist left-wing political parties of Galicia use the Estreleira flag as a party symbol. It's also used by the left-wing nationalist trade unions.
It doesn't have exact size, and the red star in the middle sometimes goes aligned with the blue band. Other examples of Socialist-inspired flags within nationalist movements are the Catalan and the Occitan flag .
