According to the Guinness Book of World Records the present record holder for largest American flag is one that measures 505 feet by 225 feet. Each star and stripe is 17 feet high. The overall weight is 3,000 pounds. It requires 500 people to unfurl and carry it.
Rumor has it that there is a larger North Korea flag (900 feet long x 300 feet high) in the village called Gesungdong.

What are the rules for flying an American flag during war?
If it is a very minor tear (less than one inch long) then it is widely accepable to continue flying the flag as long as its condition does not bring discredit upon it. Anything bigger than that you really should not fly, especially if it is a really big tear, or the end is tattered, in which case I recommend folding it up, properly storing it (in a clean, dry, non-floor/ground) place and getting a new one.

Why were groups like the Know Nothings and the Order of the Star Spangled Banner less radical in the South?
The Order of the Star Spangled Banner was initially known as the "Know Nothings" and actually gave rise to the American Party - thus they are the same group, the Order of the Star Spangled Banner occurring first but both known as Know Nothings.Although I am not a scholar in this era of American history, my presumption is that the Irish, Catholic, and German immigration (as listed in Wikipedia, although Catholic includes the Irish and the Germans) was far greater in the North where there were many jobs especially opened to unskilled Immigrants; whereas in the South, most of the unskilled labor had been supplied by slaves and was farm or plantation work. Factory, railroads, and big city jobs (such as house servants) were far more common and available in the North so that is where the vast bulk of the immigration occurred.

Why do they sing the star spangled banner before an event?
We sing it before big events because we are Americans and we want to celebrate the fact that there is no other nation like ours. Why do we smile when we're happy or shout when we're angry? Because that is how we express what we're feeling, its our reaction to whats going on around us or within us. We sing to wish each other good luck, in the hopes that the Fates smile upon us, our friends, and our family. We hope for the future to be safe and filled with happiness, after all, we sing to show strong emotion, and in the case of the Star Spangled Banner we sing the pride of our country for the whole world to hear.
