WA
The 42nd state, admitted 1889
As the Evergreen State, it is appropriate
that Washington WA is the only state to use a green background for its flag. It is also
the only state with a picture of a president on it - George Washington. In the
center is the state seal, designed in 1889 by Charles Talcott. When the Daughters of
the American Revolution wanted a flag to send to American solders fighting in Europe in
1916, this was the one finally adopted in 1923.
Washington State Flag Adopted: 1923
