Arkansas entered the Union in 1836 as the 25th State.
Arkansas adopted its flag in 1913, modified in 1923 and 1924. Arkansas' rank in the Union is indicated by the stars which border the diamond, recalling that it is the only State where minerals are mined. The four stars in the diamond refer to important aspects of Arkansas history.
Arkansas state flags, flag decals, and Arkansas state deal decals are available from FlagLine.com.
