The flag of Cook County, Illinois, nicknamed "I Will", consists of a light blue pall with a green border on a field of white. Six red stars with seven points each sit in a circle at the flag's hoist side, drawing cues from the city flag and other symbols of the county seat of Chicago and its in-county suburbs.
