The Indiana state flag displays a golden torch symbolizing liberty and enlightenment at its center, encircled by 19 stars-13 for the original colonies and 5 for states admitted before Indiana, plus one for Indiana itself as the 19th state. Above the torch, the word “INDIANA” is inscribed in gold, all set against a rich royal blue field that conveys vigilance, perseverance, and justice. The flag was officially adopted in 1917 and designed by Paul Hadley.
