History & Meaning of the Georgia Flag
Georgia’s state flag has changed multiple times over the years. The first official state flag was established in 1879. This flag resembled the Stars and Bars flag of the Confederacy, except it had a vertical blue stripe across the hoist instead of a blue canton. In 1905 the state seal was added to the strip of blue.
Later, in 1956, a new flag was adopted. This flag kept the blue vertical hoist and seal but replaced the red and white stripes with the Confederate Battle Flag. This flag lasted almost 50 years before a new flag took its place in 2001. This new flag consisted mostly of the state seal but was highly criticized and by 2003 was again replaced.
The 2003 flag is the one we see today that is reminiscent of the Confederate Stars and Bars flag. However, this flag includes the coats of arms from the state seal within the canton. 13 stars circle the coat of arms to represent Georgia’s place among the original 13 colonies.
