The Flag of Westarctica has gone through many changes since the nation first declared itself a sovereign territory. Although the original flag of the Achaean Territory was generally considered to be an eyesore, subsequent flags were designed to be more aesthetically pleasing while also encompassing the values of Westarctica. There have been five flags representing Westarctica since the nation was first founded. Only two of these flags have ever actually flown on a flagpole.
In late 2014, Grand Duke Travis decided it was time to bring back some of the old symbols of Westarctica. In a show of solidarity with the old regime, he created a new flag utilizing the old symbology of the "Cross and Crown" design. To make the flag more aesthetically pleasing, simple tinctures of blue and white were used instead of the original teal and forest green found on the 2004 - 2010 flags. The specific tincture of blue is called "Westarctica Blue" and is considered a protected official color of Westarctica.
