Today’s theme, orange was selected by my wife. Flying are the flags of the Kingdom of Bhutan and the Northern Territory of Australia.
Bhutan’s current flag dates back to 1969 and was formalized in 1972. It features a white dragon on top of background divided diagonally from the lower hoist-side corner to the upper fly-side corner; the upper triangle is yellow and the lower triangle is orange.

Quoting the Norther Territory Government’s web page on its flag, “The NT flag was flown for the first time at a ceremony in Darwin on 1 July 1978 marking the grant of self-government. It includes the three official NT colours – black, white and red ochre (PMS 159) – and a stylised version of the Territory’s floral emblem, the Sturt’s Desert Rose. The Desert Rose on the red ochre panel has seven petals with a seven-pointed star in the centre, symbolising the six Australian states and the NT. The five white stars sitting on the black panel on the left of the flag represent the Southern Cross. The flag was designed by Australian artist Robert Ingpen AM, whose work is well known throughout Australia.”
