Georgia

The flag of Georgia embodies the state’s layered political and cultural history, balancing echoes of the Confederacy with symbols of enduring American ideals. Adopted in its current form in 2003, the flag closely resembles the first national flag of the Confederate States—known as the “Stars and Bars”—but replaces the Confederate emblem with Georgia’s own state seal. The seal, framed by thirteen white stars representing the original colonies, shows three pillars supporting an arch labeled “Constitution,” symbolizing the state’s foundational principles of wisdom, justice, and moderation. A soldier stands guard beside them, representing defense of those ideals. The red, white, and blue stripes honor the U.S. flag, tying Georgia’s complex past to its continued union. The result is a design that blends remembrance, reconciliation, and a distinctly Georgian sense of pride.
