North Carolina has an official flag. Also known simply as the North Star, it features a vertical blue union on the left, followed by a red horizontal stripe and a white horizontal stripe on the right. Within the blue union are the letters “N” and “C,” which are separated by a star.

With its combination of red, white and blue colors, the North Carolina flag is attractive. You can find it displayed throughout the Southeastern state. What’s the history behind the North Carolina flag exactly?

Origins of the North Carolina Flag

During its early years, North Carolina didn’t have an official flag. It wasn’t until 1861 when a proposal was made to adopt an official flag.

In 1861, the North Carolinian state constitutional convention established a committee to design an official flag. During that same year, an official flag was recognized. This initial version shared many of the same features as the current North Carolina flag. It had a vertical stripe on the left and two horizontal stripes on the right. And like the current North Carolina flag, the initial version consisted of red, white and blue colors.

The Flag Statute of 1885

North Carolina changed its flag in 1885. This new version replaced the red field with a blue field. It also added the letters “N” and “C” to the field. As you may have guessed, these letters represent the state’s name. The initial version of the North Carolina flag only featured a star with the date “May 20, 1775” above it and the date “May 20, 1861” below it. The new version adopted in 1885 retained the star and the two dates. But it added the letters “N” and “C” to represent the state’s name.

When comparing the old North Carolina flag to the new one, you’ll notice that the colors are different on the horizontal stripes. Both versions feature a color scheme consisting of red, white and blue. The first version of the North Carolina flag, though, had a blue horizontal stripe and a white horizontal stripe on the right-hand side. In Flag Statue of 1885 called for a new design consisting of a red horizontal stripe and a white horizontal stripe on the right-hand side.

The North Carolina Flag Today

North Carolina continues to use the same design as specified in the Flag Statute of 1885 for its official flag. It has only changed the design once throughout the state’s flag. That change, of course, was made over a century ago with the Flag Statute of 1885.

What is the pledge to the flag of North Carolina?

The pledge to the flag of North Carolina is as follows: “I salute the flag of North Carolina and pledge to the Old North State love, loyalty, and faith”.

When was the North Carolina flag adopted and who is the designer?

The first state flag of North Carolina was adopted in 1861 and designed by William Browne, an artist from Raleigh. In 1885 a new design was adopted and designed by General Johnstone Jones. This design remained unchanged until 1991 when a few minor changes (some commas were removed and slight adjustments to the size) were made.

What do the designs mean on the North Carolina state flag?

The state flag of North Carolina contains two horizontal bars of red and white and a blue vertical bar. On the blue bar is a 5 pointed white star with the initials “N” and “C” in gold lettering on either side of the star with the dates “April 12, 1776” and “May 20, 1775” also in gold letters. The red and white stripes and colors represent the “Stars and Bars” of the first National Flag of the Confederate States of America. The date of April 12, 1776 is the date of the “Halifax Resolves”. The “Halifax Resolves” was the result of a meeting of the Provincial Congress of North Carolina, in the town of Halifax, which called for independence from Great Britain. This call for independence, places North Carolina at the forefront of the American independence movement. The date May 20, 1775 Commemorates the “Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence”. This declaration is claimed to be the first declaration of independence made in the 13 Colonies during the American Revolutionary War. It was said to be made by a committee of patriots in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina who declared independence from Great Britain after hearing about the Battle of Lexington.
