Saint Martin is a divided island in the Caribbean. Its northern half is the French Collectivity of Saint Martin; its southern half is Sint Maarten, part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
A flag named the "Unity Flag" was created in 1990 as a symbol of unification of the two entities, and has since been in local use to represent the island as a whole.[1] In 2013, it was flown near the island's border monument to commemorate the 165th anniversary of Emancipation, the end of slavery on Saint Martin.[2] In 2020, the flag was used by protesters against COVID-19 border restrictions.
