The P.L.R.A. was founded on 10 July 1887 in Asunción as
Centro Democrático, presided by Antonio Taboada, a hero
of the war against the Triple Alliance (Brazil,
Argentina and Uruguay).
It governed Paraguay from 17 December 1904 to 17 February 1936. The
party was renamed Partido Liberal in 1890, Partido Liberal
Radical in 1967, and Partido Liberal Radical
Auténtico in 1978.

Under the Stroessner regime, Paraguay was a single-party state. The
original Partido Liberal was made illegal and many members fled into
exile. Eventually, Stroessner allowed opposition parties to exist legally
again, as long as they recognized the authority of his own
Partido Colorado. The Partido Liberal thus
split into a radical faction who rejected the second-rate status, and a
faction who returned to politics within the new system. The radical
faction went on to officially add the Radical moniker to the party name,
as mentioned.

The flag of P.L.R.A. is described in the preamble of the party’s statutes, last amended 7 May 2006:
and as its emblem the blue flag with a five-pointed star placed in upper hoist, the first flag of the motherland at the dawn of its independence.The flag alluded to in the party’s statutes must be the short-lived flag used in 1811.
The flag of the Radical Liberals is also very similar to that of the
Dr Francia presidency, 1826-1842.

The party website currently displays,
as part of the header of all pages, the
image
of party flag with the upright star; a photo
confirms this design.

Regarding the shade of blue, the images currently available on the
web, regardless of the visible details of design, reveal that the
field is about the same shade as blue in the national flag.

The colour seems to be the important thing, with
design being secondary. Here are two
captures from the brief report
which appeared on World News Today on BBC4 tv on 21 April 2008:
Supporters of the PLRA, which uses dark blue, are shown in these shots
waving vigorously (too vigorously for detailed analysis) at least
three types of blue flag, all of them different from what
we show. There is one with a star and the initials, one with the
initials in a different typeface and between lines, and one plain blue
flag.

The flag seems to be incorrect: The star is shown upside-down, and
blue color is too dark. This may have been derived from the party logo
which was used in late 1990’s and early 2000’s, showing
a waving flag shaped in a simplified way, with and all edges composed of
straight lines, the star orientation being adapted to the
“slanted” hoist in a way which might deceive the observer
to get the impression of an upside-down star, as no flagstaff was shown.
This logo has been out of use for a long time.
