First explored for France by Robert Cavelier, Sieur de la Salle, in 1679-1680, the region figured importantly in the Franco-British struggle for North America that culminated with British victory in 1763. George Rogers Clark led American forces against the British in the area during theRevolutionary War and, prior to becoming a state, Indiana was the scene of frequent Indian uprisings until the victories of Gen.
People have lived in the land that is Indiana for thousands of years. The Woodland culture inhabited the area until 1000 AD when the Mississippian culture emerged. There was a number of Algonquian-speaking Native American tribes living in the region when the Europeans arrived. They included the Illini, the Shawnee, and the Miami peoples. In the 1600s, other tribes arrived from the east as they were pushed out by Europeans such as the Delaware peoples.
Early Indiana settlers had a great concern to preserve religious freedom, and many denominations have been cultivated here and contribute much to the makeup of Indiana life. Today, over 7000 churches can be identified serving about half of the current population.
The present design of the Indiana Flag has been accepted after holding a designing competition, whose sponsors were the Daughters of the American Revolution at the time of the Centennial jubilations of the state in 1917. The designer of Indiana Flag who won the competition was Paul Hadley of Mooresville. The winner of the competition was promised to be rewarded with a cash prize of $100. Initially, it was known as the state banner but later the General Assembly of 1955, altered its name as the flag. The only addition that the Assembly made was the introduction of the name “Indianaâ€.
"The field of the flag shall be blue with nineteen stars and a flaming torch in gold or buff. Thirteen stars shall be arranged in an outer circle, representing the thirteen original states; five stars shall be arranged in a half circle below the torch and inside the outer circle of stars, representing the states admitted prior to Indiana; and the nineteenth star, appreciably larger than the others and representing Indiana shall be placed above the flame of the torch." Indiana's natural heritage has benefited from private and public attention over the years.
Indiana's natural heritage has benefited from private and public attention over the years. There is a barrage of cheap and inferior Indiana flags being imported and sold, that do not comply with the flag statute. This is bad for a number of reasons. Imported flags are cheaply made and more importantly, the designs, materials, colors, and methods of printing do not compare well with the better quality, longer-lasting, and correctly designed flags made by American manufacturers. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Indiana flag for the future.
