Commonwealth of Australia

Flag adopted 1909-MAY-22, coat of arms adopted 1912-SEP-19
Design of the flag
The Australian flag is composed of three parts:

The Union Jack (British flag) in the top left corner,
The 'Star of Federation' in the bottom left corner, and
The Southern Cross, taking up the right half of the flag.
The Union Jack shows that the first colonisation by Europeans was by Britain. In case you didn't know, Australia started as a penal colony. The Star of Federation is a seven pointed star. They came to the number seven, by giving each state (six in all) a point on the star, and having one more point for Australia's territories (of which there are several). There are two mainland territories, and several overseas, including two in Antarctica. The Southern Cross is a constellation that can be seen from all of Australia's states and territories.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All the stars have an inner diameter (circle on which the inner corners rest) of 4/9 the outer diameter (circle of outer corners), even the 5-point star. The positions of the stars are as follows:

commonwealth star - centred in lower hoist,
alpha - straight below centre fly 1/6 up from bottom edge,
beta - 1/4 of the way left and 1/16 up from the centre fly,
gamma - straight above centre fly 1/6 down from top edge,
delta - 2/9 of the way right and 31/240 up from the centre fly,
epsilon - 1/10 of the way right and 1/24 down from the centre fly.

The positions of alpha-epsilon are given with respect to the centre of the square fly, and distances in terms of hoist width of the flag. See this page at the Ausflag site for more details.
