Flag of Tristan da Cunha
Encyclopedia : F : FL : FLA : Flag of Tristan da Cunha
The Flag of Tristan da Cunha was adopted on October 20, 2002 in a proclamation made by the Governor of Saint Helena under a Royal Warrant granted by Queen Elizabeth II. Prior to this, as a dependancy of Saint Helena, Tristan du Cunha used the Flag of Saint Helena for official purposes.
The flag is a blue ensign design, defaced with the Coat of Arms of Tristan da Cunha- a Tristan longboat above a Naval Crown, with a central shield decorated with four yellow-nosed Albatrosses and flanked by two Tristan da Cunha Spiny Lobster. Below this is a scroll with the territory's motto, Our faith is our strength.
