Georgia's General Assembly ratified the addition of the Confederate Battle Flag to the state flag in 1956 as a backlash to the Brown v. Board of Education decisions, which federally imposed integration of public schools.

The Georgian national flag is a white rectangle, with a large red cross in its central portion touching all four sides of the flag. In the four corners there are four bolnur-katskhuri crosses (also referred to as a Georgian Cross or a Grapevine cross) of the same color as the large cross.

Over time, the flag and St. George himself were adopted by the Kingdom of England in full. Therefore, we have another link as to this day, Georgia still flies the cross of St. George on her flag as do we and he is the patron saint of both countries.

Flag of Georgia itself represents a white cloth with five red crosses, one central (St. George) and four equilateral (Bolnisski) crosses in the four quadrants. Rectangular and four small cross on a white background are the general Christian symbols that embody Jesus Christ the Savior and the four evangelists.
