RHODE ISLAND FLAG FACTS

RHODE ISLAND WAS THE FIFTH STATE TO ENTER THE UNION ON MAY 29TH 1790.  A STYLIZED ANCHOR IS CENTERED ON THE WHITE FIELD AND THE STATE'S MOTTO , " HOPE", APPEARS BENEATH IT.  THE CAPITOL CITY, PROVIDENCE, WAS FOUNDED BY ROGER WILLIAMS IN 1636 AS THE FIRST PERMANENT EUROPEAN SETTLEMENT.  THE ANCHOR AND MOTTO ARE SIGNIFICANT TO THAT.
