The Union Jack is a reminder of the country's deep historical ties with the United Kingdom. The flag's story begins in 1869 when it was designed for ships and became official in 1902.
The hex codes are respectively: Blue #00247D, Red #C8102E and White #FFFFFF.
Of course, could it be that the stars are so red simply because the New Zealanders wanted to “add some color” to the stars? Who knows!
