Although it is the only state flag to depict the Union Flag, it is not the only state symbol to carry the British flag. Alabama’s coat of arms also features the Union Flag – quartered with symbols portraying other powers that have, at some point in history, been sovereign over Alabaman territory.

As with many good historical legends, there is no solid evidence that this happened. What seems more likely is that in an age of national symbols and maritime power, Hawaii needed a flag to denote its own vessels.

One of the legends surrounding the adoption of the current flag is that the British had given King Kamehameha I a Union Flag. The Hawaiian king had flown it out of respect for King George III and as a sign of friendship with Britain. During the War of 1812, Americans on the islands were unhappy with such a partisan act. The current design, combining elements from both nation’s flags, was the Hawaiian compromise.

The story of Hawaii’s state flag tells the story of competing claims for the Pacific island group. As Hawaii, they became the most recent of the 50 states of the United States in 1959. They had, however, been annexed as the Territory of Hawaii in 1898. But as the Sandwich Islands, the territory had been eyed by Britain for their naval significance.
