Kentucky's official state flag
was adopted in 1918, but that design was not
finalized until 1928. The flag was again changed
in 1962.
The flag has a deep blue background with part
of the state seal in the center, and the words
Commonwealth of Kentucky and United We Stand,
Divided We Fall. On the seal, a pioneer and
a statesman are shaking hands. Goldenrod flowers
encircle the bottom half of the seal.
Capital: Frankfort
Nickname: Bluegrass State
Motto: United we stand, divided
we fall.
Flower: Goldenrod
Kentucky was the 15th state in the USA; it
was admitted in 1792.
