Falkland Islands Nylon Flags
Popular
Adopted in 1948 (revised in 1999 with larger crest and removal of the white disc); The Falkland Islands are located in the South Atlantic Ocean off the east coast of Argentina. The flag is blue with the flag of the UK in the upper hoist-side quadrant and the Falkland Island coat of arms centered on the outer half of the flag; the coat of arms contains a white ram (sheep raising was once the major economic activity) above the sailing ship Desire (whose crew discovered the islands) with a scroll at the bottom bearing the motto DESIRE THE RIGHT.
