Kentucky entered the Union in 1792 as the 15th State.
Kentucky adopted its flag in 1918, modified in 1962. The frontiersman and hunter, representing Kentucky and the original States, express the meaning of the motto in the seal. The State flower (goldenrod) frames the design at the bottom.
Kentucky state flags, flag decals, and Kentucky state deal decals are available from FlagLine.com.
