Best Answer

The flag of the District of Columbia in the United States is three red stars above two red bars on a white background. It serves just as much modern use as any other flag - it is an emblem for the area and its territory. Before DC adopted it as their flag, it was based on the coat of arms of George Washington which was used in that family since the 12th century.
