Arkansas State Flag

A flag is often an amalgam of anecdotes that tell the history of a state.

You will find below the description and explanation for the symbols of the flag of Arkansas.

The Arkansas Flag was adopted on 15 June 1836. It consists of a red background on which stands a white rhombus (called diamond in heraldic) bordered blue. On the blue border, we can see 25 white stars, and at the center of the diamond, we can read the name of the state surrounded by four stars. The diamond proudly symbolizes Diamond mine, which was long the only one in the country, and the main resource of Arkansas. The 25 stars symbolize the fact that that Arkansas was the 25th state to join United States. The star that overcomes the name of the State refers to the Confederate States, and the three stars on bottom represent countries Arkansas belonged to : Spain, France, United States. Arkansas joined the United States on 4 July 1836. Arkansas is known as the "natural state", and its capital is Little Rock.
