Background knowledge
The flag of Utah has a blue background on which the state seal is depicted. Surrounding the seal is a gold ring and in the lower part is the year 1896 in white, the year the flag was adopted. In the center of the seal is a shield with a beehive on it. It is the emblem of the Mormon state and commemorates the settlement of Utah by the Mormons. Therefore, the year 1847, when the Mormons settled Utah, is also shown below it. Above the beehive is 'Industry' and below the basket is 'Utah' also in white lettering. Surrounding the shield on the left and right are two USA flags that had the support of Utah to the state. At the top is an eagle, the state animal of the USA, which stands for protection in times of peace and war.
Utah takes its name from the Ute Indian tribe, from whom the word 'Yuttahih' comes. Translated, it means 'the one who is higher'.
