The Fiji flag is patterned after after the British blue ensign.
The lighter blue color was used to differentiate it from the
flags of Australia and New Zealand. The British ensign is in
the upper hoist side and it also contains the state coat of
arms. The coat of arms contains the British lion, the cross
of St. George, sugar cane, coconuts, a peace dove, and a bunch
of bananas.
