Flag of Arizona
|
The flag of Arizona consists of 13 rays of red and gold on the top half, representing the original 13 colonies, the conquistador colors, and the colors of setting sun, as well as portraying Arizona's legendary sunsets. The copper colored star in the center signifies Arizona's copper-mining industry. The blue in the lower half is the same blue adopted for the national flag.
The state flag of Arizona was adopted on February 17, 1917. It was designed by Colonel Charles W. Harris who was the general and chief administrative officer of Arizona, and was first sewn by Nan D. Hayden.
