Symbolism of Ohio Flag
Red, blue and white are strongly related to the national colors of the USA. The stripes on the flag represent the state's notable waterways and highways. The blue triangle is symbolic of the valleys and hills found in the lands of Ohio. The white border of the circle resembles the letter “O” for Ohio, while the red circle is a symbol for a buckeye, that is also the nickname for the state. Out of the 17 stars, 13 are grouped together to signify the original 13 states belonging to the Union. The remaining 4 stars below the triangle's apex, denote the position of Ohio, which became the 4th state to unite with the Union, following the 13 states.
The Ohio Flag is laden with intense symbolism and is marked with a striking and unusual design.
