My research indicated that, since independence in 1812, there
has been 14 flag design changes in Colombia and its preceding
federal states. This includes the restoration of the
Spanish ensign from December 1815 to August 1819. This
is equal to that of Venezuela, though control of the capital
changed between the Spanish and independence forces on several
occasions, technically increasing the number of flag
changes.
