There are stars on the flag for a reason. The reason is that each of the stars on the flag represent a state.
From Wikipedia: The Flag of Europe is the flag and emblem of the European Union (EU) and Council of Europe (CoE).[4] It consists of a circle of 12 golden (yellow) stars on a blue background. The blue represents the west, the number of stars represent completeness while their position in a circle represents unity. The stars do not vary according to the members of either organisation as they are intended to represent all the people's of Europe, even those outside European integration. There are however alternative, unofficial, religious interpretations of the flag.
12 The number of stars has nothing to do with the number of Member States. There are twelve stars because the number twelve is traditionally the symbol of perfection, completeness and unity. The flag therefore remains unchanged regardless of EU enlargements.
There are twelve stars in the European Union flag. The flag is actually the Council of Europe flag, but was later adopted for use by the European Union. The twelve stars are all positioned like the hours of a clock, and are all facing upwards. Despite common misconception, the number of stars has no real meaning, and is a fixed amount. Unlike the Flag of the United States it doesnt represent a country or state.

12.
The number of stars on the flag is fixed at 12 and is not related to the number of member states of the EU since it is originally the flag of the Council of Europe and does not have a relationship with the EU. Despite arguments from multiple EU nations, Twelve was eventually adopted as a number because it had no political connotations and was a symbol of perfection and completeness because of the ubiquity of the number for groups in European cultures and traditions.
The flag of Europe is a blue background with twelve five-pointed gold stars organized in a circle in the center. It is the flag of the Council of Europe and the European Union, and is also used in relation to the Eurozone and the continent of Europe as a whole. The flag was first used by the Council of Europe in 1953, when there were only fifteen members. However, not all members were considered sovereign, so only twelve stars were used as a symbol of perfection and completeness.
The European Union flag is a blue background with a circle of 12 yellow stars.
The flag is straightforward : 12 yellow stars in a circle on a field of blue. (There are images of the European Union flag at the related links below.)
Drawing a European Union flag is simple. All you have to do is draw a rectangle, then color it blue and add stars.
