The flag of Acadian
was adopted on August 15, 1884, at the Second
Acadian National Convention held in Miscouche, Prince
Edward Island by nearly 5,000 Acadian delegates from
across the Maritimes. The Tricolor represents the
Motherland of the Acadians. The yellow star, the Stella
Maris, is the symbol of Mary, Acadian national symbol
and patron of the mariners. It is set on the blue
stripe, because blue is the color of Mary. The yellow
color of the star represents the Paracy.
