Devil's Island is an island located near French Guiana (South America) which was used by France as a penal colony for their prisoners until 1946. It seems to still serve the same purpose in the 31st century, when one of its delegations was sent to the 3004 Earth Olympiad (4ACV13). This may suggest that Devil's Island has became a independent country.

Trivia
- The context in which it appears is likely meant in reference to the 1973 movie Papillon, set on Devil's Island and starring Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen. The character holding the flag resembles Hoffman's character in the film.
