History

In Portugal, Gay Pride/Rainbow flag is "localised" by addition of a disk, divided vertically green-red and charged with the national arms.
The disk is just slightly larger than the armillary sphere and is correctly displayed when flown with the sinister hoist.
A unique characteristic of the flag is that it employs two colours in two shades - green (the stripe is a bit lighter than the disk) and blue (the stripe is much lighter than the escutcheons).
Most of its photos currently available on the Web date either from 2007 or from 2012.
