Tuvalu or the Ellice Islands is a country in the Pacific Ocean, made up of nine small islands — five atolls and four islands — that form the Tuvalu archipelago. The islands lie roughly 50–100 km apart.

The blue flag features nine yellow stars, one for each atoll, and the Union Jack in the upper-left corner, which occupies one quarter of the flag.
