Virgin Islands USA

The flag of the United States Virgin Islands features a simplified version of the Great Seal of the United States with a golden eagle holding an olive branch and three arrows, flanked by the letters 'V' and 'I'. The eagle symbolizes protection and the connection to the United States, the olive branch represents peace, and the arrows stand for the three principal islands: Saint Thomas, Saint John and Saint Croix.

The current flag was officially adopted on May 17, 1921. Designed after the United States purchased the islands from Denmark in 1917, it reflects the territory's status as an unincorporated territory of the United States while emphasizing its own island identity.
