There was no state flag for Minnesota prior to and during the U.S. Civil War. The original version was from the late 1800s, decades after the Civil War and it was the Great Seal on a white flag.

    Yeah no offense but your old state flag sucked. A good state flag goes on a lot (Alaska), as do weird (Ohio) and terrible (Maryland) ones. It’s not my preferred variant of the new one you picked, but it looks good and is distinctive, and most importantly isn’t your seal.
