The first version of the "stars and stripes" was representing the 13 colonies – 13 stars and 13 stripes. As the country grew, the number of stars was increased, with each star representing a state of the union (currently 50 of them). There are still only 13 stripes on the flag, representing the original 13 colonies that started this nation.
There were many different designs submitted for the flag design, but I do believe it was some seamstress named Betsy Ross that designed the flag. I could be wrong on that part, but the beginning is true.
Open up your history text book, all answers can be found there.
13 stripes
50 stars
13 stripes for the orignal 13 colonies
50 stars for the 50 states- updated when new states are added
13 stripes for the 23 colonies and 50 stars for the state
Stars = 50
Stripes =13
One Star for each state. One stripe for each of the colonies.
You really should do your own homework.
50 stars that stand for the current 50 states.
13 stripes that stand for the original 13 colonies.
Besty Ross was the designer according to legend.
Those are just some quicks facts I know but I’m not sure how much else you need. Here’s a great link to wikipedia for reference to the american flag.
wow 50 stars for the 50 states.
13 stripes for the original colonies.
red for the blood that was spent, and white for the purity of their ideals.
A field of blue behind the stars to signify their origins.(The british flag)
Originally made by Betsy Ross
All i can say is that u really need to take a look at the flag with full attention and think.
Actually, it is obviously to see that there is 50 stars those represent the 50 states and 13 stripes represent those British colonies.
Lastly, u need to learn about the one dollar bill in case because it has so much meaning in there.
its da worst flag study the italian flag =)
