Flag of Arkansas

The flag of Arkansas was adopted on February 26, 1913. The flag contains a red field with a white diamond in the center with a blue border. On the blue border there are twenty five stars. Inside the white diamond is the inscription “Arkansas” with three stars below it and on above it. The three stars represent the three countries that Arkansas has belong to Spain, France and the United States. In 1923 the fourth star was added to represent Arkansas also being part of the Confederate States of America. The white diamond was made to represent Arkansas as being the only state with Diamond mines until new discoveries were made in Colorado and Montana.
