Overview

Santa Rosa (officially: Santa Rosa De Lima Norte De Bolívar) is a municipality located in the Bolívar Department. It was founded on 3 July 1735.
The flag of Santa Rosa is red with green triangle at the hoist which is charged with four points star. The inscription of the name of the municipality on the bottom of the flag is seems not to be exist on real flags.

Translated from municipal web site:
"The flag has the following characteristics: its shape is rectangular, with a green triangle charged with a white eight-pointed star, representing the symbol of the department; the red background is the traditional colour of the municipality while green represents the fields."
The description (eight-pointed star) does not match the picture (four- pointed star) and I fail to understand in which manner the star represents the department of Bolívar.
