About Tennessee |
| Capital |
Nashville |

The three stars on the flag represent the three different
land forms in Tennessee. Mountains in the east, highlands in the
middle and lowlands in the west. On the flag these regions are bound
together in an unbroken circle. The field is crimson with a blue
background for the stars. The final blue strip relieves the sameness
of the crimson field and prevents the flag from showing too much
crimson when it is limp. |
