The flag of Uruguay is composed of nine equal horizontal bands of white alternating with blue, with a white square superimposed in the canton. In the white square is a yellow sun bearing a human face — the Sun of May — from which sixteen rays extend. The sun's rays alternate between triangular and wavy.
