The last state in the union to continue to bear the battle flag of the Confederacy on its flag, Mississippi, finally made the decision to retire the old design in the summer of 2020.
The old flag — designed in 1894 — was pulled down from state buildings in July, and in the November election, the state's voters chose the new design pictured above, centered around the magnolia. Finally, the will of the voters has been approved and made official by Governor Tate Reeves.
