Virginia State Flag
Virginia ratified the U.S. Constitution in 1788 as the 10th State, flag adopted in 1861. The Latin motto "Thus Ever to Tyrants" is reflected in the design of the seal, which shows a woman subduing a king. Around the edges are vines of the ivy known as Virginia creeper.
Virginia state flags, flag decals, and Virginia state deal decals are available from FlagLine.com.
