The State of Arkansas was originally the Territory of Arkansaw, but when it was admitted to the union, the spelling was changed. Later there was a conflict between two Arkansas Senators. One wanted to be called the "Senator from Arkansas", the other "Senator from Arkansaw". The Arkansas Legislature formed a committee of historians to resolve this conflict. In 1881, a state law was passed. In what would become Arkansas Code, title 1, chapter 4, section 1-4-105, the pronunciation would be "Arkansaw"
Arkansas (pronounced ARKanSAW) was number 25, hence the 25 stars around the diamond on the state flag.
