French Polynesia is an overseas collectivity of France located in the South Pacific Ocean, about 6,000 km (3,700 miles) east of Australia. It consists of 121 islands and atolls, grouped into five archipelagos, including Tahiti, the largest and most populous island, where the capital, Papeete, is located. The official language is French.
The flag of French Polynesia, adopted in 1984, features two red horizontal bands with a white central stripe. At the center is the territory’s emblem, which depicts a red Polynesian canoe sailing on blue and white waves, with a golden sun above.
