Description
The Flag of West Virginia is a striking emblem that reflects the state's unique history and identity. Set against a pure white field bordered by a blue stripe, the flag features the coat of arms of West Virginia at its center. This emblem is adorned with Rhododendron maximum, symbolizing the state's natural beauty, and is crowned by an unfurled red ribbon bearing the inscription, State of West Virginia. Notably, the flag is distinguished by the inclusion of crossing rifles, a poignant reminder of the state's pivotal role in the Civil War as the southern unionist 35th state. This emblematic flag serves as a powerful tribute to West Virginia's unwavering commitment to liberty and unity.
