Virginia State Flag
A deep blue field contains the seal
of Virginia with the Latin motto " Sic Semper Tyrannis" - "Thus Always
to Tyrants". Adopted in 1776. The two figures are acting out
the meaning of the motto. Both are dressed as warriors. The woman,
Virtue,
represents Virginia. The man holding a scourge and chain shows that he
is
a tyrant. His fallen crown is nearby.
