The fly edge and the foot are one colour, and the same one, whatever else is drawn on top of it.

What we know about it
The Second Northern Marianas Constitution adopted the flag on July 1, 1985, and it had been designed earlier that year and finalized in the last CNMI constitutional convention. Three symbols make it up: a star for the United States, a latte stone for the Chamorro people, and a mwarmwar, or floral wreath, for the Carolinians, made from the ylang-ylang, the plumeria, the peacock flower and the Pacific basil. The background represents the Pacific Ocean and the Mariana Trench.

Its day
The almanac keeps a page per day of the year that something is dated to. This flag is on one of them, with the sentence that says so.
Nearest in the world
Every flag is compared with every other one, off the pictures themselves. Two copies of one picture score 0; these are the closest to this one. How that is measured.
