Columbus, Ohio

The flag of Columbus, Ohio, USA, is an unequal tricolor of yellow, white and red, with the city's seal in the center.
==Symbolism==
The chrome yellow, white, and scarlet red triband, is a reference to Spain, who funded Christopher Columbus' expeditions to the Americas. The eagle with outstretched wings is another example of American symbolism. Behind the eagle is the dome of the Ohio State Capitol building, denoting Columbus' importance as Ohio's capital city. Just above the dome is the text "Columbus, Ohio" in yellow old English font. The eagle is grasping onto a single yellow star, which, with the additional 16 stars, represents Ohio as the seventeenth state to join the Union. The buckeye leaves are another representation of Ohio, as it is the state tree.
