Washington 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 Washington.

The flag of the state of Washington was adopted in 1925. It consists of a green background on which is sewn the state seal. The latter consists of a yellow outer band on which we find the portrait of George Washington, first president of the United States, portrait also used on the one-dollar bill. Washington State is often confused with the capital of the United States, which has the same name, even though they are perfectly distinct. The seal that adorns the flag (designed by Gilbert Stuart) is, which is very rare, to be sewn and not printed. This makes the flag one of those most expensive in the world to produce. The year 1889 reminds that the state administratively joined the United States, even if it is only July 4, 1890 that it will permanently be integrated. Washington State is known as the "Evergreen State", and its capital is Olympia.
