About the flag

The flag of Micronesia consists of a blue field with four white stars arranged in a diamond pattern, representing the four main island groups: Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, and Kosrae. This blue color symbolizes the Pacific Ocean, which is central to the identity and culture of the Micronesian people. Micronesia, officially known as the Federated States of Micronesia, is an island nation located in the western Pacific Ocean. Its unique flag design and the meaning behind its stars offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and unity of the islands. To remember the flag, think of the ocean's vastness and the way the stars highlight the distinct yet interconnected nature of its communities. This representation emphasizes both pride and diversity, key elements of Micronesian identity.
