Additional Information | N/A In 1810, Americans in the part of coastal Mississippi that Spain would not relinquish, rebelled under the flag of the Republic of West Florida (Bonnie Blue flag). The United States took possession and the area was annexed to the Mississippi Territory. Mississippi was admitted to the Union as the 20th state in 1817. In 1861 the state seceded from the Union and adopted what is known as the "Magnolia Flag", a white flag with a Bonnie Blue canton on the upper hoist, a green Magnolia tree centered on the white, and a red vertical band on the fly end. It remained in use until 1894. Several Confederate States flags also flew during the War Between the States (1861-1863). | |||||||||
