![[Flag of Rio São Francisco, Bahia (Brazil)]](../images/b/br-ba_sf.gif) image located by Aristobulo Lima, 27 May 2015
 
image located by Aristobulo Lima, 27 May 2015The State of Rio São Francisco is not a formally established Brazilian state, 
but a project for the creation of a new state that would secede from the eastern 
part of the State of Bahia.
To be considered a state, Rio São Francisco 
must fulfil several requirements in the Brazilian Constitution for creation of a 
new  federal entity, including a referendum, which has not happened yet. 
But on the other hand I do think that it would be relevant to contain this 
information as well as the flag and coat of arms of this new state in the link 
related to the State of Bahia.
For further information about the design 
of this new state, I send you the link below (in Portuguese):
