Papua New Guinea

The flag of Papua New Guinea is divided diagonally, from the upper hoist-side corner to the lower fly-side corner, into a lower black and an upper red triangle. On the hoist side of the lower black triangle is a representation of the Southern Cross constellation made up of one small and four larger five-pointed white stars. A golden Raggiana bird-of-paradise is situated on the fly side of the upper red triangle.
