Indiana Flag

The flag of Indiana consists of a gold torch on a blue field. The torch represents liberty and enlightenment and rays emerging from the torch represent the far reaching influence of liberty and enlightenment. The torch is surrounded by an outer ring of 13 stars (representing the original 13 colonies), an inner loop of 5 stars for the next 5 steps to join the Union, and one large star above the torch, to represent Indiana, the 19th state to join the United States.

The flag was originally designed by Paul Hadley of Mooresville, Indiana, in a contest sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution, and adopted by the Indiana General Assembly in 1917.
