5It wasn’t until January 2001 that Georgia adopted a new state flag. This flag had a blue background with the state seal in the middle. The bottom of this flag had a gold banner that displayed other flags that had flown over Georgia in the past. Although Georgia had a new flag, the disagreement was not over. People who liked the 1956 flag were outraged. They even staged protests against the new flag. Some people believed that the 2001 flag was too detailed, making it unattractive. Finally, in 2003, Georgia got another flag. This flag looked similar to the Stars and Bars, but the blue square included the coat of arms surrounded by thirteen white stars. Although this flag was more popular than the 2001 flag, not everyone was pleased. Today, Georgia still flies the 2003 flag.
