Peruvian subdivisions
Peru has a dual system of administrative-territorial divisions (ATD) and
local self-government entities. From the point of view of the ATD, Peru is
divided into departments [24 departments and one constitutional province],
departments are divided in provinces [196], and provinces are divided in
districts [1838]. From the point of view of the self-government organization,
Peru has 25 Regional Governments, 196 Provincial Municipalities, and 1838
District Municipalities. All these self-government entities [* with exceptions]
have or should have their own flags.
* Exceptions are District
Municipalities which are Cabeceras (Districts of the provincials seats),
which are using the same symbols as the Provincial municipalities.
Furthermore, most of the flag entities in Peru have more than one flag, as they
are using civic flags (plain mono-, bi-, tricolors) without emblems, official
flags which are same as the civic flags, but with the emblem/coat of arms added,
and finally, the large ceremonial flags, which are usually monochrome with the
name of the entity and coat of arms on them.

Discussion
A
Congress
press release on line says:
Acto en la Plaza Bolívar lo presidió su titular
Antero Flores »« Aquí, cada parlamentario se ubicó al pie
de la bandera de la región a la que representa.
meaning «The event in Bolívar Square was presided by its office-holder
Antero Flores »« Here each member of Parliament located himself under
the flag of the region he represents.». This suggests that all regions have
flags.
António Martins, 22 March 2006Peruvian Vexillological
Association will
start an official sponsored travel though Peru for search for departmental,
regional, provincial and districts flags to publish them in a future book.
We can expect more new flags
(note however that regional, departmental, several provinces and dozens
of district flags are published in Flag Report 22 [frp] available already in Spanish).
Jaume Ollé, 20 April 2001
About Peruvian regions: with the help of a Peruvian friend I was
able to compile all the regional flags. There's a big problem: sometimes the
region flag, the region government flag, or even the regional council are
different. Few regions have official flags, but surely all (pending the confirmation of two) use white flags with arms or logo or the departmental flag.
From the internet she found several photos. The following report is based always in
photos. I will draw the images when possible.
