In 1902 the current territory of Quintana Roo was separated from Yucatan to form the Federal Territory of Quintana Roo. The Sovereign Free State was created on 8 October 1974, being Governor Attorney David G. Gutiérrez Ruiz. Until then, Quinta Roo has distinctive arms. In the Quintana Roo coat of arms are represented the State's main geographical features: warm climate (stylized sun on red), cloudless sky (star on blue field), and thick vegetation. The crest is a rising sun for Quintana Roo is the far-eastern Mexican State, then where the Mexican day begins.
