The flag of the Falkland Islands features a deep blue background, symbolic of the surrounding Atlantic Ocean. In the upper hoist-side corner sits the Union Jack, representing the islands’ connection to the United Kingdom. Dominating the fly side of the flag is the Falkland Islands’ coat of arms, set against this azure backdrop. The coat of arms consists of a white disk containing a sheep centered above a three-masted sailing ship, the Desire, which highlights the islands’ historical and economic reliance on sheep farming and maritime activities. Below the ship, the flag displays the islands’ motto, “Desire the Right,” on a white scroll. This motto not only refers to the name of the ship but also emphasizes the integrity and righteousness upheld by the islanders. Overall, the colors white and blue are prominent, conveying a sense of peace and freedom.
