The State of Mississippi in brief, a deep southern state with an immense cultural heritage

The State of Mississippi is located in the South American USA between the American states of Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama and has a coastal coastline that borders the Gulf of Mexico. This American state (the 20th to have joined the Union) takes its name from the Mississippi River that flows through it into the Atlantic Ocean, the second longest river in North America after the Missouri.

Mississippi can boast a very rich musical heritage and be a melting pot of American music. It is the birthplace of blues, rock and roll music (with singer Elvis Presley) and country. It is also a territory where you can admire colonial houses with white porticoes and cotton fields, evidence of its heavy slavery past. It is also the land of fried catfish, a unique Mississippian culinary specialty!

Graphic composition and origin of the Mississippi flag!

Adopted in 1894, the flag of Mississippi is composed of 3 horizontal bands: blue, white and red. In its upper left canton near the mast you can see flying the old flag of the Confederate States of America (other name: Southern flag).

It is the only state in the United States that carries the Confederate emblem as it stands on its state flag, but other flags such as the flags of Arkansas, Alabama and Florida have a design that recall certain motifs.

The Mississippi flag therefore reminds us of its history with a secessionist and slave past. Despite a referendum in 2001 to change the flag and replace the Confederate battle flag with a 20 star blue canton, this American state decided to keep the old flag at 65% to 35%.

This southern United States state is an integral part of the Deep South region. This cultural region owes its fame to the fact that it was a slave territory (African slaves on cotton plantations) but also to the fact that it was the cradle of jazz, blues and Cajun cuisine.
