The national flag of Australia is based on the British Blue Ensign—a blue field with the Union Jack in the upper hoist quarter—featuring a large white seven-pointed star (the Commonwealth Star) and a representation of the Southern Cross constellation, made up of five white stars (one small five-pointed star and four larger seven-pointed stars). Australia also has a number of other official flags representing its states and territories, indigenous peoples and government bodies.
