A proportion of the population of up to 40% is classified as not religiously bound. The religious minorities include the followers of the Orthodox Churches, Anglicans, Jews, Baha’is and Muslims. European Spiritism (Kardecism) and the Afro-Brazilian religion Umbanda are widespread.

National symbols

The national flag was set by Parliament on December 16, 1830. The flag is white with four blue horizontal stripes; the resulting nine stripes symbolize the original departments. In the white Obereck there is a sighted sun.

The coat of arms was last set in 1908. It shows a split and slightly arched oval shield in the first field a golden scale (symbol of justice), in the second silver field a natural-colored hill with a fortress (Cerro von Montevideo), in the third silver field a black horse (freedom) and in the fourth blue field a golden bull (ranching). The shield is surrounded by olive and laurel branches, the sun rising above the head of the shield is a reminder of the former belonging to Argentina.

The national holiday on August 25 commemorates the gaining of independence in 1825.
