Tennessee

The flag of Tennessee is red with a vertical blue stripe on the fly of the flag. In between the red and blue is a thin white vertical stripe. In the center of the red area is a blue circle with a thin white outline (same thinness as the vertical white stripe). Inside the blue circle are three five-pointed stars, arranged in a triangle, each 120° angled from the other.
==Symbolism==
The three stars represent the three Grand Divisions of Tennessee; East, Middle, and West. The blue circle around the stars represents the unity of those grand divisions. The blue stripe at the fly is placed to prevent the flag from looking too simple.
