The Lone Star flag of today is the composite of symbols from the individual banners representing the diverse philosophical, cultural, ethnic and political groups involved in the evolution of Texas to independence and regional self-determination. Symbolizing the fact that Texas is unique among states of the world, the composite Lone Star banner is a copy of no one state, yet it employs symbolic elements of its progenitors. The Lone Star banner employs the red and white colors of its parent countries Spain, the Mexican United States of America and the United States of America. Its two wide red and white stripes symbolize its uniqueness and greatness as a one-time Republic.
Texas passed its Flag Act in 1933, describing the exact specifications for its flag. The Flag Act named blood red, azure blue, and white as the official colors, and outlined the exact location of the lone white star. The white star resides on a vertical blue stripe at the hoist. The remainder of the flag is two horizontal stripes, white over red.
