What is the flag of Martinique?
This flag, derived from the flag adorned with the spear-headed snake, an endemic snake that uniquely characterizes the island, has no official character in Martinique, but served as a representation of the island for several years for the distinction from the metropolis.
It comes from the coat of arms of Basse-Terre and consists of three lilies (in historical reference to the link between Guadeloupe and the royal domain) on a blue background and a shining sun in the center on a bundle of sugar cane and a black background.
The distance in a straight line between Grand-Rivière and Pointe des Salines is only 64 km. And its width varies between 10 and 26 km. So that no point is more than 12 km from the sea.
The three colors (azure, silver and gules) recall the flag of France (blue, white, red). The silver crescent symbolizes the Muslim crescent, Islam being the majority religion on the island. The two gold stars are reminiscent of ylang-ylang flowers and a reminder of the island’s agricultural prosperity.
