The current US flag was designed shortly after the American Revolution. The red and white stripes, of which there are 13, represent the original 13 colonies. The white stars on a blue background represent the states. The original design was a circle of stars but as states joined the Union this was modified to rows of stars. The current flag has, thus, 50 stars, one for each state.
