Flag of the Pitcairn Islands
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Flag of the Pitcairn Islands was adopted on April 2, 1984. It is a Blue Ensign, with the Union Flag in the canton and the coat of arms of the Pitcairn Islands in the fly.
The arms feature the anchor and bible from HMS Bounty with a slip of miro (a local plant) and a wheelbarrow. The design represents the ancestral history of the islanders, most of whom are descended from the sailors who mutinied on the Bounty in 1789.
The Governor of the Pitcairn Islands has a separate flag, the Union Flag defaced with the coat of arms.
