Nevada state flag
The Nevada flag, adopted in 1991, consists of a bright blue field with a version of the state’s emblem in the upper left corner. This consists of a large white star with the phrase, “Battle Born,” above it, recalling its history of becoming a state during the Civil War. Below the star is the state name, “NEVADA,” with sprigs of Goldenrod displayed below.
All of our flags at Star Spangled Flags are 100% made in the USA from start to finish! We use a tough, nylon fabric to hold up outdoors, extra stitching on the fly end of the flag, and a special UV coating to prevent fading from the sun.
Nevada flag, Made in USA
Nevada’s official nickname is “The Silver State” referring to the silver rush days of the 1800s. In those days, silver was scattered over the grounds of Nevada and can literally be shoveled from the desert. It is also sometimes called as the Battle Born State, Sagebrush State and Sage hen state.
The state is mostly desert and the climate semiarid. It’s located in the southwestern region of the country and bordered by Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and California. Nevada is known for world class hotel-casinos, entertainment, and shopping, particularly Las Vegas. Las Vegas has been called as the “adult’s playground” due to the number of casinos and activities.
Aside from the glittering casinos, Nevada is also famous for colorful festivals and events.
