True, I said NC because I think they had that layout before the civil war, but I'll wiki that real quick. Nope, I forgot it was a blue bar instead of the blue canton, but you learn something new everyday. And yes, it had the coat of arms but they chose that gold colour and it reminded me of Indiana's gold and blue flag.

Our coat of arms has always been that color gold

Look, if we had to find a new flag, the North Carolina Republican Party would find a way to gerrymander it.

It doesn't surprise me at all that Lady Gaga is the first thing that comes up when you Google that.

Although the first result being her song "The Cure" did make me chuckle.

Washington's flag is just the state seal on a green background but I like it. The green suits the Evergreen State well.

The green is nice and fitting but I've always found the state seal to be underwhelming. We need something better on the flag.
