Universidad Central de Venezuela (Central University of
Venezuela; founded 1721).
Description: A white field (although sometimes light yellow or
even beige are used; there are no official specifications to this
flag besides the ones I'm giving) with the Seal of the University
and the date "1721" (date it was founded) on royal blue
(embroidered under the seal on roman type letters). The seal

words "*Universidad Central* Caracas-Venezuela", we see

sits on two books (philosophy and science), old papers and an
inkpot with a pen on a book (history). Branches of Cofee and Palm
encircle the lower part of the arrangement (as a connection to
the tropical reality the University stands in).
