Black, red & yello are traditional colors of Melanesians (alike Australians [the true, not the British!], Kanax, Vanuatuans or Solomoneze); they are used in their art. The Kumul or Logohu (bird of paradise) represents the nation while the Southern Cross stands for the location of the country. The present pattern was designed by a local 15 old student girl named Susan HAREHO KARIKE who won a pop competition & then adopted on 1 JULY 1971, four years before the independence.

1971 (idiot 3:4 instead of 2:3)

naval ensign (idiot 3:4 instead of 2:3) Fuckin colonial tradition : please get rid of it

colonial 1944 (Territory of Papua and New Guinea as a formal unified administration de facto in 1944 becomes oficial in 1949 - Australia)

colonial 1942 (Australian military administration) +

fascist 1942 (ocupation of north of New Guinea - Japan)

colonial 1921-1942 (mandate granted to Australia by the LON on 17 December 1920 but not effective before 19 May 1921 / TNG = Territory New Guinea - Australia)

colonial 1914 (Australian military forces captured Rabaul, capital of German New Guinea, in September 1914 - German flag irrelevant after that date)

Deutsch-Neuguinea (flag project dated from 1914 - NEVER ADOPTED)

NOTE #1 : Theres a real doubt about the ratio of the flag of the Reichskolonialamt. It's sometimes said it was 5:8 or 2:3. But both ratios dont match with the usual German 3:5.

The REAL flag captured by Australian troops in Rabaul in 1914. Seems to be 5:8.... strange !!!!

This one is drawn 3:5 but is WRONG as the central emblem is displayed off-center, which is NOT correct.

NOTE #2 : The 1885-1899 flag is made after the seal of the Deutsche Neu Guinea Compagnie. Notice this flag is inspired from the so typical British Ensigns.... which is NOT a German tradition at all !!!!

SHIT FOTW is just ETERNAL shit. Indeed when you look at Jaume Ollé's flag here you can see the lily flower does not look like a lily flower at all. Moreover it's mixed with the tongue of the lion !!!!

NOTE #3 : The flag for Kingdom Boe Vaga found and vizible here seems to be entirely spurious.

The flag was designed 18 Oct 2011 by "chandlerw1" as part of a set of flags for an on-line war game, Paradox Interactive. The game requires flags for five types of government. For Papua, he used the West Papua independence flag for republic, that flag without the star for democracy, a modified PNG flag for communists and fascist and for monarchy he showed what he claimed was the flag of the Boe Vaga Kingdom of New Guinea (19th Century). oldforum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?565417-Symbols-Flagpack

There was a local chief called Vaga at Milne Bay. At a meeting after the British Protectorate was read in 1888, the British Officer "put upon the chief's right arm a porcelain armlet as a mark to to represent the position the chief was appointed to fill" (the most senior of the local chiefs who would deal with the British) (source: New Guinea: An account of the establishment of the British Protectorate over the southern shores of New Guinea by Charles Lyne). New Guinea prior to colonisation was a multitude of tribes, mostly extremely isolated with over 500 languages. There was no "Kingdom" only a variety of coastal villages encountered by the British.

colonial 1906-1942 (British New Guinea passes to Australia and is renamed Territory of Papua - Australia)
