No reward points for this product.
The flag of the United States, often called the "Stars and Stripes" or "Old Glory", is one of the most recognisable symbols in the world. It consists of thirteen alternating red and white horizontal stripes, representing the original thirteen colonies that declared their independence from Great Britain in 1776. In the upper left-hand corner, a blue canton displays fifty white five-pointed stars, symbolising the current fifty states of the Union.
The colours of the flag each have a meaning: red symbolises bravery and courage, white represents purity and innocence, and blue embodies vigilance, perseverance and justice. First adopted on 14 June 1777, the flag has undergone several changes over the years to reflect the addition of new states. Every year on June 14, Americans celebrate Flag Day to honour this national symbol of freedom and unity.
