When did the number of stripes changed on the american flag?
In 1795 and again in 1818. In 1795 after Vermont and Kentucky were admitted to the USA two more stars and two more stripes were added to the flag of the United States of America. This 15 star 15 stripe US flag lasted until 1818 when five more states were admitted. At that time the US Congress decided to revert to the original 13 alternating red and white stripes and add a star to represent each new state. The 15 star 15 stripe flag is known as the "Star Spangled Banner" the flag of our National Anthem.

How has the American flag changed over time?
AnswerNot much change except for the number of stars and their placement. Original US flag had 13 stripes (as it still does) and 13 stars. A star was added for each State that joined the Union, and the placement of the stars changed patterns as necessary for uniformity. In 1795 when Vermont and Kentucky were admitted to the U.S. our flag had 15 stars AND 15 stripes, alternating red and white. This flag is known as the "Star Spangled Banner." Then in 1818 the flag returned to 13 stripes and 20 stars for 20 states. Since then it has remained the same with 13 alternating red and white stripes with the addition of stars for each new state.
