What does the yellow star on the Burnett Flag stand for?

The Burnett flag was the original flag of the Republic of Texas. The Burnett flag duplicated the flag of the Republic of West Florida, but changed the color of the star from white to gold. The design honors the Republic of West Florida as the first "Lone Star State". The Republic of West Florida was illegally annexed by force by the United States government without the approval of congress. The flag of the Republic of West Florida therefore became a symbol of US expansionism and aggression. The West Florida flag became known as the "Bonnie Blue Flag", and was used as a battle flag by the Confederate states during the war for Southern independence. The Bonnie Blue Flag is still in use today by Texas secessionists and other Southerners who favor state's rights and/or secession from the US.
