Niue

The flag of Niue consists of a yellow field, with a modified Union Jack, which has many stars lining the stripes, and a larger star inside a blue disc in the center of the Union Jack. No other former or current British colony has modified their Union Jack.
==Symbolism==
The Union Jack symbolizes the protection of Britain, after the chiefs of Niue made a petition with the Empire in 1900. The four stars surrounding the blue disc represent the Southern Cross, which could be seen on many countries in the Southern Hemisphere, one of which is New Zealand, who took over administration of the island. 
The yellow star inside the blue disc represents the island itself, surrounded by the sea, and the yellow field represents the bright sunshine, and the warm feelings of the people of the island towards New Zealand.6:46 of Flags of Territories Explained
