The Flag of Ecuador

Flat Hal and Flat Stanley have learned a LOT as they travel. As they arrive in each country they look up what the Capital is to see if they are going to have a chance to visit it — do you know the Capital of Ecuador?

The flat fellas also try to look up what the flag is so they can look for it while touring, and what type of government the country has as they understand the government at home isn’t the only type there is.

The Capital City of Ecuador was a 6 hour drive from Manta, the flat fellas looked it up!
