Oceania Flags Challenge – Stars and Symbols of the Pacific

Oceania's flags often reflect the night sky and the ocean. The Southern Cross appears on the flags of Australia, New Zealand, Samoa and Papua New Guinea, helping sailors navigate.

Many flags show local birds, plants and tools: Papua New Guinea's bird of paradise, Kiribati's frigatebird, Vanuatu's boar tusk and Fiji's shield with crops.

Some flags still carry the Union Jack, showing historic ties to Britain. Debates over changing flags continue, and New Zealand held referendums on a new design in 2015 and 2016 but kept its flag.
