The flag of Amapa contains an important part of green (that form a triangle
together to the shaft and is extended as a horizontal band in the center,
that represents the jungle of the State, within the one which is located
what I believe that it is the indigenous symbol of the four arrows that represent
to the four cardinal points; the green part this fimbreated of white by the
hope in the future; the blue represents to the sky and the rivers of the
State, and the yellow, as in the national flag, symbolizes the gold. The
flag was adopted little before the territory was converted into a State.
