Solomon Islands Flag

The British protectorate that was built up over the Solomon Islands in 1893 presented run of the mill British pioneer banners. The Union Jack and British Red Ensign were equivalent to those utilized in the United Kingdom; the Blue Ensign had an identification highlighting nearby images. The primary identification had the name of the protectorate and the imperial crown, while another identification presented in 1947 demonstrated an adapted high contrast ocean turtle on a red foundation. The arms were changed in 1956 to a progressively perplexing structure on the grounds that the 1947 identification had stressed an image connected uniquely with one area of the islands. The new crest was quartered and bore a hawk, turtle, lion, frigate winged animal, and different nearby weapons.

At long last, a basic example was picked and formally embraced on November 18, 1977, eight months before freedom. The inclining yellow stripe represents the sun and partitions the foundation into two triangles. The lower (green) triangle represents the trees and yields of the fruitful land. The upper (blue) triangle shows the significance of water for the islands—streams and downpour just as the encompassing sea. The five white stars on the blue initially represented the five regions (areas) into which the nation was partitioned, however the quantity of stars didn't change when extra territories were made.
