The flag representing the Argentine province of Tierra del Fuego, Antarctica and South Atlantic Islands was adopted by the provincial government on 9 November 1999. The winning design was created by Teresa Beatríz Martínez. The flag is sometimes used to represent Argentine claims in the South Atlantic, because this province, according to Argentine law, includes the Falklands and South Georgia (two British Overseas Territories), and the sector of Antarctica between the 25° West and 74° West meridians.
