The flag of Samoa (Samoan: fu‘a o Sāmoa) is a red field with a blue canton bearing five white five-pointed stars that form the Southern Cross constellation. Paramount chiefs Malietoa Tanumafili II and Tupua Tamasese Meaʻole initially designed the flag with four stars and introduced it as a local flag in 1948, when Samoa was under the stewardship of New Zealand as the Territory of Western Samoa.
