Introduction

Vanuatu Districts' flags, according to Flags of Paradise 1996. Unfortunately, I have very few information about these flags. The only thing I can add to the image is that all of them are from circa 1983. I know that a book about Vanuatu flags was edited in the past, maybe there is more information there book than on the flag chart I used.

If my information is correct, the former 11 districts have been replaced with 6 provinces a few years ago. So, my question is — would those new provinces have, by any chance... new flags? I have unfortunately no information about replacement of the districts by provinces.
