Aloha Austin Powers! The Hawaii state flag features a British flag to symbolize the islands' history of friendly relations with the British.  It's eight stripes represent the eight islands that compose the state.

The title for trippiest flag goes to Maryland.  This mesh of bizarre patterns and shapes stems from the family crests of the Calvert and Crossland families that helped found Maryland back in 1634.
