The Flag of Australia



The Flag of Australia displays the Cross of Jesus Christ four times:

  • Red cross on white background (flag of St George)
  • Diagonal white cross on blue background (flag of St Andrew)
  • Diagonal red cross on white background (flag of St Patrick)
  • Plus the Southern-Cross

No other national flag in the world displays the cross of Christ more times than the Australian flag.

Then the seven-point Star of the Commonwealth or Federation Star is placed under the Cross - symbolizing the nation's submission to Christ.
