The three colors of yellow, blue and red come from the colors of the original flag of the Republic of Gran Colombia. The seven five-pointed stars represent the seven provinces of the Venezuelan Federation of 1811. Government agencies use the national flag with the national emblem, while private citizens use the national flag without the national emblem. Driven by President Chavez, on March 7, 2006, the Venezuelan National Assembly passed revisions to the national flag and national emblem, deciding to increase the number of stars on the flag from 7 to 8. The newly added star represents the province of Guyana, which was freed from Spanish rule and incorporated into Venezuela in 1817.
