Additional Details:
The red and green in Mexico's flag are symbolical of her wars of independence, they are united by the white of peace. When the Aztecs came to the valley of Mexico, an enormous eagle with a snake in his talons, was seen perched on a giant cactus. This considered a good omen and Mexico has adopted the ensignia as a national one.
