Flag of Arkansas
| A short history of the Arkansas State flag |
The flag of Arkansas is a reminder of the Confederate Battle Flag with blue diagonals and white stars. The Daughters of the American Revolution put pressure on the authorities to adopt an official flag for the presentation of the battleship of Arkansas. In the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, Arkansas was one of three states formed. The USA bought the land from France. The three states are represented in the center by the three blue stars. Arkansas was the twenty-fifth state to be admitted to the Union, which is represented by the twenty-five white stars. The Confederacy and the tricolor of France are both represented by the red, white and blue colors. |
