There exists a new provincia of Orellana (since july 20, 1998).

It looks as though Orellana has been created out of the big Napo province.
Franc Van Diest, 30 November 2000

Orellana has its Capitol in Coca.
Robert Lloyd Wheelock, 30 November 2000

On July 30, 1998 the new province of Orellana (Ecuador) has been created and, recently, we were looking for any information about a possible flag for this new province. Hopefully, today I've been able to find an image of this flag together with a picture showing it flying at <www.ambato.com>. I've made an attempt of reconstruction of this flag assuming that the black stripe is 1/4 of the length of the flag. No information is available about the symbolism of the colours but we can guess that the black stripe is here to illustrate the petroleum exploited in this area.
