American flags and flags of the world are a living legacy to behold
The flags of the world are symbols of recognition full of beauty and color for each country. For many countries they symbolize independence, honor and fight for liberty such as the US American flag. As we raise the flags of the world high on the flag poles, we sing a national anthem such as the Star Spangled Banner, which is a tribute to our great country.
American flags each have fifty stars, one for each state in the Union, plus thirteen stripes, seven red and seven white, which stand for thirteen original colonies. It is said that the first USA confederate flag was made by Betsy Ross.
