America Flag

The American colonies come together due to the increasing economic and military pressure of the Kingdom of Great Britain, and a war begins between the colonies and the Colonial Kingdom of Great Britain, which will last from 1775 to 1783. During the war, the American Declaration of Independence was proclaimed on July 4, 1776. The day the declaration was declared has been celebrated as American Independence Day since then.

After January 1776, the Colonial Army Commander, George Washington, ordered the preparation of the Great Troop flag. Accordingly, the flag would be a flag with 13 red and white lines, with the British flag in the upper left corner. Then, in May 1776, Betsy Ross reported that she had planted the American flag. The flag you see in the picture is America's first flag and is known as the Betsy Ross Flag.

On June 14, 1777, congress proclaimed the first flag law to create an official flag for the new state: It was decided, the American flag is made of 13 successive red and white stripes; It consists of a union of 13 white stars on a blue background, symbolizing the new constellation.

Between 1777 and 1960, Congress passed several laws that changed the color of the flag, its shape, and the number of Stars and Stripes.

The American flag today consists of 50 stars and 13 red and white stripes. These lines represent the 13 colonies and the white stars represent the 50 states. White, purity and cleanliness; red, heroism and courage; blue represents determination.
