A diamond on a red field represents the only place in
North America where diamonds have been discovered and mined. The
twenty-five white stars around the diamond mean that Arkansas was
the twenty-fifth state to join the Union. The top of four stars
in the center represents that Arkansas was a member of the Confederate
States during the Civil War. The other three stars represent Spain,
France and the United States, countries that had earlier ruled the
