Ultimate Battle of Oceania

Wellington

Enga, neat and tidy, I like it.

Enga, I like it. Its simple yet there's a bit of effort to it. It works as a whole thing, whereas the Madang is several different bits not necessarily rowing the same way.

Enga

Simplicity wins out

madang for the symbology

Enga Province -
The background is divided into black (for the national flag) and green (for vegetation) triangles. At the centre is a yellow, black and white dendrobium engae orchid (the provincial flower).

Madang
Red, yellow and black stripes (representing the national flag) form the background. Six white stars represent the 6 districts. In black and white, Madang's memorial to the Coastwatchers of the Second World War is surrounded by coconut palm branches (for agriculture) and a slit drum (for tradition)..

Madang stronger symbolism but Enga aesthetically pleasing so Enga for me please.

Manus - Brown is unusual and its pleasing to the eye

manus flag meaning
"The colour brown represents the inland people and the blue represents the island people. The Chauka is only found in the Manus province. It is not found in any other place in PNG. My second reason for selecting the chauka is that it heralds the coming of dawn and signals the going down of the sun." explanation of the symbolism by the flag designer.

New Caledonia
The blue symbolizes both the sky and more importantly the ocean surrounding New Caledonia. The red symbolizes the blood shed by the Kanaks in their struggle for independence, socialism, and unity. The green symbolizes the land itself and by extension the ancestors buried within it. The yellow disc is a representation of the sun and the symbol upon it consists of a flèche faitière, a kind of arrow that adorns the roofs of Kanak houses thrust through tutut shells



I love both but New Caledonia is more striking for me and the symbolism is better.

New Cal - douze points!
