The flag of New Zealand has three colors: blue (Pantone 280C), red (Pantone 186C) and white. These colors are not just for eye candy, but carry meaningful symbols. The blue represents the seas and the sky, while the red and white stars symbolize the constellation of the Southern Cross.

The cross marks New Zealand's geographical location, while the Union Jack in the flag's upper left corner signifies its historical association with the British Empire. The story of the flag begins in 1869, when New Zealand realized the need for a naval flag independent from Britain. If you are curious about the hex codes, blue is #00247D and red is #C8102E.
