The largest of the U.S. states east of the Mississippi River and the youngest of the 13 former English colonies, Georgia was founded in 1732, at which time its boundaries were even larger-including much of the present-day states of Alabama and Mississippi.
By the mid-19th century, Georgia had the greatest number of plantations of any state in the South, and in many respects epitomized plantation culture and economic dependence on slavery. Georgia is named after George II, who was king of Britain when Europeans first settled there in 1733.
The desire for land and later gold created a swift expansion beyond the old frontier, carrying with it increased trade along rivers and migration of people along new roads into the wilderness. The primary basis for this new growth and economic expansion was the production of cotton through a slave labor system.
The historical backdrop of the banners that have flown over or were expected to fly over the State of Georgia is a long one with numerous unanswered inquiries. Numerous planned outlines were never executed. Numerous statutory outlines were changed by configuration.
On May 8th, 2003, the new Georgia flag above was approved. The new design displays two red stripes, one white stripe, and a blue field upper left. The state's official coat of arms (on the blue field) is surrounded by 13 white stars, symbolic of Georgia being one of the original 13 colonies.
On the seal itself, three columns support an arch, reflecting the administrative, legal and official branches of government. A standing man with a sword was drawn is protecting the U.S. Constitution. The Flag Company Inc had practical experience in banner outlines offered a unique release of decals and banners to remember the historical backdrop of Georgia State Flag for the future generations.
