The story of this flag

The flag of Samoa is a red field with a blue canton bearing five white five-pointed stars arranged to form the Southern Cross constellation. Paramount chiefs Malietoa Tanumafili II and Tupua Tamasese Meaʻole designed the flag with four stars in 1948, when Samoa was under the stewardship of New Zealand as the Territory of Western Samoa. The smaller fifth star was added in 1949.
