The flag of New Zealand is navy blue, and has
in his left hand above the Union flag, with 4
stars on the right, representing the
constellation of Crux. The first New Zealand
flag, the flag of the United Tribes of New
Zealand, was approved before New Zealand
had become a British colony. Was chosen by
a meeting of Maori chiefs in 1834, the flag was
a St George's Cross with another cross in the
canton containing four stars on a blue field.
After the formation of the colony in 1841, the
British insignia began to be used. The current
flag was designed and approved for restricted
use in 1869 and became the national flag in
1902.

27. The Coat of Arms
• The Coat of arms of New Zealand is
the ultimate symbol of that country.
Until 1911, the country used the same
Coat of arms of the United Kingdom.
From that year, his own coat was
established in 1956 with minor
modifications.

28. • Since the first coat the central shell
remained unchanged, according to
the rules of heraldry: one
quartered shield containing the
first four frame stars representing
the constellation of the Southern
Cross, as the New Zealand flag,
but with different proportions, in
the second frame skin soft
indicating a sheep livestock
industry, in the third a handful of
wheat symbolizing agriculture, and
in the fourth two axes representing
mining and industry .

29. In the middle there is a flap - shaped
strip with three ships that make
reference to shipbuilding trade, and
immigrants who formed the New
Zealand people. The shield is
supported by two figures: a queen of
European features holding the New
Zealand flag on the left side, and one
Maori warrior holding a taiaha on the
right side. On top of the shield there is
a Cross of St. Edward , and below the
shield, there are two branches of
Cyathea dealbata, a typical sheet of
the country and a track containing the
country name in English: “NEW
