Kiribati Flag: Ocean Waves and the Frigatebird in Flight
The flag of Kiribati, adopted on July 12, 1979, the day of independence, features a golden frigatebird flying over a rising sun with three white wavy lines below on a red field.
The frigatebird symbolizes freedom and strength. The sun, with 17 rays, represents the 16 Gilbert Islands and Banaba, the main islands of Kiribati. The three white waves represent the Pacific Ocean's three main archipelagos: the Gilbert, Phoenix, and Line Islands.
The red background contrasts with the blue and white waves, signifying courage and the nation's tropical environment. This distinctive flag reflects Kiribati's geographic identity and cultural symbolism.
