Texas has had three official national or state flags during its existence: the 1836 national standard, the 1836 national flag for the naval service, and the 1839 national flag, which became the state flag.
The current flag of Texas was adopted in year 1993 after revisions were made under the state statutes. According to the history of the Texas flag, the present Lone Star Flag of Texas was actually the official flag of the Republic of Texas in 1839. The first proposal of this flag was introduced by William Wharton in the Third Congress of the Republic. Not much is known about the person who designed this flag. Later it became the official Texas State Flag in 1845, when Texas became the 28th state to join the Union. Prior to this the Republic of Texas had another flag, which had an azure field, with a big 5-pointed golden star in the center.
