The Sint Maarten flag is divided into two sections, with the top section being blue and the bottom section being white. At the center of the flag there is a sun, which is colored yellow and has eight rays. On either side of the sun there is a white silhouette of a compass rose.
The blue section of the Sint Maarten flag represents the sky and the ocean, while the white section represents peace and unity. The sun symbolizes the island's sunny climate and also represents the new era of unity and prosperity for the island.
The compass rose is a symbol of the island's geographic location and its importance as a hub for transportation and commerce in the Caribbean. The eight rays of the sun represent the eight districts of Sint Maarten.
The current design of the flag was adopted on June 13, 1985, when Sint Maarten officially became a separate country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Prior to this, the island had been part of the Netherlands Antilles, which had its own flag.
