Mapa que muestra las banderas de los 50 estados de los Estados Unidos.

Las banderas de los estados , territorios y el Distrito de Columbia (Washington, D.C.) de EE. UU. exhiben diversas influencias regionales e historias locales, así como diferentes estilos y principios de diseño. Las banderas modernas de los estados de EE. UU. datan de principios del siglo XX, cuando los estados consideraron símbolos distintivos para la Exposición Mundial Colombina de 1893 en Chicago , Illinois . La mayoría de las banderas de los estados de EE. UU. fueron diseñadas y adoptadas entre 1893 y la Primera Guerra Mundial , [ 1 ] aunque existen algunas excepciones.

La bandera estatal adoptada más recientemente es la de Minnesota , adoptada el 11 de mayo de 2024, mientras que la bandera territorial adoptada más recientemente es la de las Islas Marianas del Norte , adoptada el 1 de julio de 1985. La bandera del Distrito de Columbia fue adoptada en 1938. Legislación reciente en Massachusetts (2021) e Illinois (2024) ha iniciado el proceso de rediseño de sus banderas estatales. Maine sometió un rediseño de bandera a votación en noviembre de 2024, pero el nuevo diseño fue rechazado en referéndum . [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Muchas de las banderas estatales comparten un diseño que consiste en el escudo estatal superpuesto sobre un fondo monocromático, generalmente de color azul.

banderas de nativos americanos

Muchas naciones nativas americanas tienen soberanía tribal , con jurisdicción sobre sus miembros y tierras reservadas . Aunque las reservas se encuentran en tierras estatales, las leyes del estado o estados no necesariamente se aplican. [ 68 ] Además, según la Ley Pública 83-280 , ciertos estados tienen derecho a manejar casos judiciales y delitos que involucren a nativos americanos que viven en reservas en ese estado. Esta ley también establece que, si bien estos estados pueden encargarse de los casos judiciales que involucren a reservas nativas americanas, no pueden controlar sus gobiernos, quitarles sus derechos de caza y pesca, ni gravar con impuestos a las personas que viven dentro de estas reservas. [ 69 ] A continuación se muestran las banderas de algunas de las reservas de tribus indígenas más grandes por población y área:
