Frequently asked

Why does the American flag have 13 stripes?

The 13 stripes represent the original 13 colonies that declared independence from Great Britain in 1776. These colonies were Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Georgia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, South Carolina, New Hampshire, Virginia, New York, North Carolina, and Rhode Island. The stripes alternate red and white to honor this founding group.

What do the 50 stars on the American flag represent?

Each star on the blue canton represents one of the 50 United States. The flag was updated to include 50 stars in 1960 when Hawaii became the 50th state. Before that, the flag had 48 stars after Alaska joined in 1959. Whenever a new state joins the union, a star is added to the flag.

When was the first American flag created?

The first American flag was adopted on June 14, 1777, during the American Revolutionary War. It's often called the Betsy Ross flag, though historians debate whether Betsy Ross actually sewed it.
