How it is put together
Measured off the picture, the same way the colours were, not from anybody's description of it.
- a single-coloured ground
The fly edge and the foot are one colour, and the same one, whatever else is drawn on top of it.
- a canton
A rectangle in the top corner by the pole that is not what the rest of the flag is, and that stops cleanly on both its sides.
What we know about it
The territory's official emblem is its coat of arms, incorporated in November 1969; the flag, a Blue Ensign displaying those arms, was adopted in April 1984. The territory itself is four volcanic islands scattered across several hundred kilometers, and three of them are uninhabited.
Drafted from Flag and coat of arms of the Pitcairn Islands on Wikipedia, as it read on 2026-08-26, and checked back against it: every date, name and number above appears in the sentences it was written from. Nobody here wrote it by hand.
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.
