The Illinois flag is a simple representation of the
Great Seal of Illinois against a white background. In 1969, the
General Assembly voted to add the word "ILLINOIS" under the Great
Seal of the flag. The State's name was added to the flag to ensure
that people not familiar with the Great Seal of Illinois would still
recognize the banner. |
