About the P.L.R.A.

The PLRA was founded on 10 July 1887 in Asunción as the "Centro Democrático", presided by Antonio Taboada, a hero of the war against the Triple Alliance (Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay). The party was renamed in 1890 "Partido Liberal", in 1967 "Partido Liberal Radical" and, in 1978 "Partido Liberal Radical Auténtico".

The Liberals governed Paraguay from 17 December 1904 to 17 February 1936.

Flag

The flag of PLRA is described in the preamble of the party's statutes, last amended 7 May 2006:

    '[...] and as its emblem the blue flag with a five-pointed star placed in upper hoist, the first flag of the motherland at the dawn of its independence."
The flag alluded to in the party's statutes must be the short-lived flag used in 1811.
