For instance, blue represented the Conservative Party while the red represented the Liberal Party. The white sections of the flag stand for both purity and peace. • The two stars combined stood for the new republic while individually they both have a special meaning of their own. The five pointed blue star stands for the purity and honesty - expected for the life of the country, while the five pointed red star stands for the Panama's authority and law.
