✒️ The Wiphala is a square emblem commonly used as a flag to represent some native peoples of the Andes, including those in present-day Bolivia, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, northwestern Argentina, and southern Colombia. Composed of a 7x7 square patchwork in seven colors, arranged diagonally, the Wiphala's precise configuration varies depending on the specific suyu (region) of the Inca Empire it represents. While often associated with the Inca, its design is thought to predate the empire, with the oldest surviving example dating back to the Tiwanaku culture (1580 BC – AD 1187). Each of the seven colors holds distinct meanings, reflecting the diverse cultures, landscapes, and philosophical principles of the Andean peoples. Since 2009, the Qullasuyu Wiphala has been recognized as a national symbol of Bolivia, alongside its main flag, and it has gained prominence as a symbol of indigenous identity, unity, and resistance in social movements across the region.
