After making a nonsensical alignment chart of Minnesota redesigns, I felt it'd make sense to post my own here. Even out of my already simple set of state flag redesigns, this is probably one of the most barebones.
Symbolism
The white star in the top left references Minnesota's motto ("L'Étoile du Nord", meaning "Star of the North") and one of its nicknames (the North Star State).
The dark blue at the bottom alludes to Minnesota's many lakes, which are the source of another nickname (the Land of 10,000 Lakes).
The white line represents the snowy winters of the state.
The azure background is meant to evoke a winter sky.
