The Marshall Islands flag: two chains and a 24-point star
The Marshall Islands flag is a blue field with two stripes, orange above white, that run diagonally from the lower hoist and widen towards the upper fly. In the canton is a white star with twenty-four points, four of them longer than the rest. The blue is the Pacific Ocean, and the stripes the two parallel island chains, Ratak, the sunrise chain, in white, and Ralik, the sunset chain, in orange. Their widening shape is said to show the nation's growth. The star's points stood for the municipalities at the time of adoption, and the four long ones form a cross that reflects the islanders' Christian faith. The flag was adopted in 1979, when self-government began. Our Marshall Islands flag keeps the star and rays crisp on the blue.
Atolls, Constitution Day and the Pacific
The country is made up of twenty-nine coral atolls and five single islands, spread over a huge area of the central Pacific. Its national holidays include Constitution Day on 1 May. Bikini Atoll, scene of US nuclear tests in the 1940s and 1950s, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In Britain the flag is chosen by flag collectors, divers who have explored the wrecks at Bikini and schools exploring the Pacific.
