Question 1338: Still time to get even

In 2000, the Supreme Court of the American state X ruled that state legislation in 1906 had rejected the adoption of the state flag in 1894, so what was assumed be the official state flag was only so through convention and usage. The governor of the state appointed a commission which came up with a new design flag, and a state referendum to adopt the new flag was proposed to the people.

The old flag lost in a vote and the old flag was retained. What is so unique about the state flag of X, that among all the 50 states, it is the only one of its kind?

The proposed design which was defeated in 2001


Answer: ]The Flag of the State of Mississippi is the only United States state flag that incorporates the Battle Flag of the Confederacy.
