Did you know that the flags of El Salvador, Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala, and Nicaragua all use the same colors as the Argentine flag? That's not a coincidence! The "Belgrano colors", as they're sometimes known within anglophone vexillological circles, were first used on a flag by Argentine prócer Manuel Belgrano, inspired by those of Argentina's oldest national symbol, the escarapela or cockade.

The reason why the original escarapelas, light blue and white pins handed out to supporters of Argentine independence, bore those colors remains the subject of academic discussion. The folk tale I'm most partial to is that they represent the open sky, because that's the only thing the Spanish couldn't take from us¹.

Fast forward to the burgeoning Central American independence movement during the early 19th century. When these states, then united under the banner of the Federal Republic of Central America decided to seek independence, one of the few foreign corsarios, or privateers, that came to their aid was La Argentina, a ship commanded by Argentine naval hero Hipolito Bouchard. Bouchard, a fierce anti-monarchist liberal, has too many tall tales surrounding his name to recount here², but the important part is that in the process of helping the Central Americans fight back foreign aggression he planted within their territory a flag bearing the colors of the country that authorized his privateering, the Republic of Argentina. Inspired by this, and Argentina's then unbroken streak of military success, the Federal Republic adopted a flag bearing the same colors and a markedly similar composition.

When, after two successive civil wars, Central America splintered into the states we know today, all of them adopted designs based off of the FRCA's flag, itself based off of Argentina's, which is why so many of them bear blue and white tri-stripes to this day.

To answer some possible questions, the flag of Costa Rica seemingly doesn't follow this design because, in an attempt to seem more like France, they inserted a red stripe into the middle. Panama's flag has a different composition and colors because as a nation it doesn't trace its ancestry to the FRCA but rather to Colombia, which it was a part of before the US intervened to have it split off, which is why it bears colors strikingly similar to the stars and stripes.

¹This is very definitely untrue but it's also the explanation that feels the best.

²The most fun one is that he once landed on Hawai'i and made a deal with then ruling monarch Kamehameha I, which led to the Kingdom of Hawai'i being the "first country to recognize the Argentine state", this is disputed by historians but they're a bunch of nerds so who cares.

Superhero who's superpower is being able to hear a director's commentary of their own life as it happens, which is mostly useless but sometimes gives them information they wouldn't otherwise know.

"Your fave is Latin American" gimmick account but instead of posting fictional animals or whatever I post real people who are very definitely not Latin American.

"Tom Holland is Latin American!" you see the vision.

I’m at the “If I close my eyes I see experience crystals” stage of playing Vampire Survivors. Should I be worried?

There HAS to be at least one person that played Deltarune and came away with the headcanon that Susie's secretly a trans egg but Ralsei isn't, right?

It's on Peertube. It's literally on Mastodon. It's on Threads with ads. It's literally on Lemmy. You can probably find it on Misskey. It's a Pixelfed original. It's on Pleroma. You can read it on Pleroma. Pleroma has serious side effects. Ask your doctor about Pleroma.

I wonder if when Deltarune ends and Ralsei DOESN'T turn out to have been a trans girl this whole time the diehard ralsegg truthers will just go "oh well it works as a headcanon" or if they'll pull some conformitygate/TJLC bullshit. I hope it's the latter.

You know Chainsaw Man and the Castlevania anime are progressive because they feature incredibly gorgeous women AND incredibly gorgeous men. Everyone is designed to be as hot as possible regardless of gender, class, or creed, and that's beautiful.

Aki Hayakawa from Chainsaw Man might genuinely be one of the most attractive characters in all of fiction and I'm not even kidding. He fights with a *sword* while wearing a suit and tie, c'mon now.

Returning to your hometown after moving away is so fucked up. Everything I'm doing here feels like it's the first time AND the thousandth time I've experienced it.
