Flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines

The flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines consists of three vertical bands in blue, yellow, and green. Each of these colors holds a specific meaning that reflects the identity of the island nation: 

Blue represents the tropical sky and the clear waters of the Caribbean Sea. 

Yellow symbolizes the country's warm sun and the cheerful, radiant nature of its people. 

Green refers to the lush vegetation and fertile agricultural land of the islands. 

The central yellow band features three green diamonds arranged in a V-shape. 

This unique shape symbolizes the letter "V" for Saint Vincent. 

Together, the three diamonds allude to the "Gems of the Antilles," highlighting the beauty and unique status of the island chain in the Caribbean.

Kampung Raja Prailiu (also known as Praing Prailiu) is a traditional royal village in East Sumba, Indonesia, located a short distance from the town of Waingapu.

The flag of Samoa is red with a blue canton in the upper left, on which five white five-pointed stars form the Southern Cross. 

It has been in use since February 24, 1949 (initially with four stars; the fifth small star was added in 1949) and became the national flag upon independence on January 1, 1962. 

Red stands for bravery, blue for freedom, and white for purity. 

The stars refer to Samoa’s location in the Southern Hemisphere and align with the flag of New Zealand.

Suðureyri (Iceland)

Suðureyri is a small fishing village in Iceland's Westfjords, located on the southern side of Súgandafjörður.

Flag of San Marino

The flag of San Marino is a horizontal bicolour—white on top and light blue below—featuring the republic's coat of arms in the centre. 

The coat of arms depicts three towers (Guaita, Cesta, and Montale) atop the peaks of Monte Titano, surmounted by a crown (a symbol of sovereignty) and flanked by laurel and oak branches, along with the motto *Libertas* (liberty). 

White represents peace, while light blue represents liberty (and the sky). 

The flag was officially adopted in 1862; the design (including the crown) was formalised in 2011. 

A civil version without the coat of arms also exists.
