✒️ Symbolism: the deconstructed Union Jack canton evokes the spear breaking chains visible in the official seal of Virginia, while also doubling as a nod to the first flag of the United States, the Grand Union Flag. The ten stripes reflect Virginia's status as the tenth state to ratify the Constitution, while their coloring references the Stuart Royal Naval Squadron Ensign as a nod to the supposed origin of the state's "Old Dominion" nickname as a royal acknowledgment of the colony's loyalty to the Stuart monarchs during the English Civil War. Blue, gold, and white also happen to be the colors of Virginian George Washington’s military uniform during the Revolutionary War. Returning to the canton: while the spear breaking chains is plainly a direct reference to independence from British rule, it also reminds us that the civil rights enjoyed by residents of the commonwealth today were hard-won. Taken with the motto, the flag may be seen as an appeal to citizens to be ever vigilant against unjust encroachments upon civil liberties. https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillology/comments/18q39pl/
