How are colors perceived in different countries? More than 500 shades are used in flags around the world, and a single flag can have anywhere from one to eight shades. In 1825, Simón Bolívar, who liberated Peru from the Spanish, removed the Inca sun from the center of the flag and placed the Peruvian coat of arms (which includes an image of a vicuña, a quinine tree, and a cornucopia) surrounded by a laurel wreath. Currently, Peru uses three versions of the flag.

The first one has vertical stripes without the coat of arms, widely used everywhere. The second version has the coat of arms in the center and is used on all government buildings and by the police. The third version, where a shield is placed in the center instead of the coat of arms, is used by the military. What is the color of the Peruvian passport?

What is the significance of renaming cities? In the Quechua language, the city is called «Kosko» (Qosqo), which means «center of the universe» or «navel of the earth.» From here, roads spread out to the four «corners» of the Inca Empire. The Spanish conquerors, who took over the country, began pronouncing the city’s name in their own way – Cusco, in Spanish. Today, the official name of the city is Cusco or Cosco, and both spellings are correct and legally valid. On January 18, 1535, Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro founded the city of Ciudad de los Reyes. What is it called now?
