 Aside from the RAF, the Royal Navy's Royal Naval Air Service (First World War) and later the Fleet Air Arm, as well as the air elements of the British Army also used the British roundels.Many nations that had been within the British Empire and Commonwealth continued to use British roundels after achieving independence, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and India until nationalism demanded unique roundels for each of those countries.South Africa replaced the red with orange (after having experimented with completely different colours), Canada changed the red dot into a maple leaf (in several forms), Australia changed the red dot to a kangaroo and New Zealand experimented with a gold, green and white fern inset in the red dot before settling on a red kiwi.
