* The Commonwealth Star is present on the Australian flag where the NZ flag has a bankblank field. It's the large, white, seven-pointed star beneath the Union Jack, with the seven points standing for the six states plus the territories.<ref>Interestingly, it used to have six points before Australia acquired the Territory of Papua (now southern Papua New Guinea) in 1906.</ref>

** 1:# The Australian Flag has five stars, the New Zealand Flag only has four (omitting Epsilon Crucis in the middle).

** 2:# The stars are white on the Australian flag, and red with a white outline on the NZ flag. [[Blatant Lies|This is because New Zealand is communist.]]

** 3:# The NZ flag has all the stars with five points; the Australian flag has all the stars with seven points except for Epsilon Crucis, which has five.<ref>Originally the Australian flag had all five stars with different numbers of points (ranging in size from five to nine points) depending on their apparent magnitude within the constellation, but in 1903 this was standardised to the four biggest stars all having seven.</ref>
