Name the country

Tuvalu is correct: the stars symbolize its nine islands, and the Union Jack reflects its history as a former British territory (independent since 1978). If you’re torn between Tuvalu and Fiji, remember Fiji’s flag features a shield; Tuvalu’s shows stars instead. Fun fact: Tuvalu is one of the world’s smallest and lowest-lying countries, making it highly vulnerable to sea-level rise. Its country-code internet domain “.tv” provides a notable source of revenue. Memory tip: think “Tuvalu = TV” and picture the nine star-islands dotted across the Pacific screen.
