Kansas State Flag - Official Design and Symbolism #3489306 (License: Personal Use)

The Kansas state flag displays a deep blue field bordered in gold, topped by a black bar with “KANSAS” in white. Centered is the state seal encircled by a rope border, showing a rising sun over prairies, a farmer plowing with oxen, a steamboat on a river, and a cabin-symbolizing industry, settlement, and natural resources. Above the seal blooms the sunflower, Kansas’s state flower, with the Latin motto “Ad Astra Per Aspera” (To the Stars Through Difficulties) arching overhead.
