Flag of Indiana



The flag of Indiana consists of a gold torch representing liberty and enlightenment; the rays represent their far-reaching influence. The stars represent Indiana's place as the 19th state to join the United States - 13 stars in the outer loop for the original 13 colonies, 5 inside them for the next five states, and one large star above the torch for Indiana.
