PSA The two flags featured are the United Tribes of New Zealand flag and the Tino Rangatiratanga flag.

The first is the oldest design based on the English flag, invented by missionaries and used before being adopted by some North Island chieftains before the Treaty of Waitangi.

The second is a more general flag for the Māori people, created in 1990 and adopted in 2009.
