Background knowledge

The flag of Colorado is white, blue, white horizontal stripes. The blue stands for the sky and the white is supposed to remind of the snow-covered Rocky Mountains. In the center is a red 'C' which stands for the state of Colorado, while red is meant to symbolize the earth. The red 'C' includes a golden disk, it is meant to remind of the Spanish heritage of the region and the mineral resources of the state.

Colorado's flag was adopted on March 31, 1964, but dates back to 1911. Its name originates from Spanish, for the word 'colored red'.
