Flag of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands

The flag of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (TTPI) consisted of a light blue field that contained six white stars centered in a circle pattern.

The stars symbolized the six districts of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands: the Marianas, the Marshall Islands, Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei (including Kosrae), and Palau.

The flag was the end product of a contest that was won by Gonzalo Santos, a government employee who lived in the Yap district.

By this time, each district of the TTPI had adopted its own unique flag.
