That was the flag for Lima, so all I was saying is that they should have the same option that people from the states have. I have the California and the U.S. flag. Does Buenos Aires have it's own flag?

The Council of the City of Buenos has just approved a new flag for this city, the capital of Argentina. In fact, the flag was originally designed by the Spanish founder, Don Juan de Garay. It quite an attractive flag, a white square, with a full fledge crowned black eagle, holding the red cross of Calatrava in the right leg. The new flag has encountered some resistance, as it depicts an imperial symbol and it seems to resemble some kind of domination from Spain.
