The most interesting fact about Kiribati: it's the only nation in all 4 hemispheres of the world - North, South, East and West. The country is also the furthest ahead of Greenwich meantime, making it the first country in the world to bring-in the New Year! The flag of Kiribati is a red field in the upper half, with a gold Frigatebird flying over a rising sun. The lower half of the flag is a blue field with three horizontal wavy white stripes that represent the Pacific Ocean as well as the Gilbert, Phoenix and Line Islands. The frigate bird signifies authority, freedom and command over the sea. Made with heavyweight material, our Kiribati nylon flag, comes with strong double stitched side seams and neatly finished with a white header.
