Description :  
The Flag Of Brisbane Is Based Upon The Arms Of The City.  The Blue -  Represents The Sea And The Brisbane River.  The Gold -  Represents The Sun And The Cities Warm Climate.  The White Wavy Lines Are Said To Also Represent The River, Which Brought Much Commerce And Prosperity To The City In The Early Days Of The British Settlement.  An Alternative Explanation Is That The Wavy Lines Represent White Clouds, Parting To Allow The Blue Sky To Be Seen Behind Them.  The Three Caducei (Gold Emblems) Again Represent Commerce And Trade (Instead Of The Erronous Association With Medicine).  The White Stars -  Represent The Achievements Of Astronomy From Sir Thomas Brisbane, For Whom The City Is Named.  The Pretzel Knots -  Represent The 38th Foot (Staffordshire Regiment) Of The British Army Which Were Stationed In And Around Brisbane Before Australia Gained Her Independence.  The Abundance Of Maritime Symbols On The Flag Reflects Brisbane's Early Role As A River Port.
