It depends on the time period of the flag. At first there were 13 stars on the flag: one for each state. As more states jointed the union, a star was added. Now there are 50 states, so there are 50 stars.
According to tradition, a folded U.S. flag will show the stars if it is done right. Most honor guard at funerals practice folding the flag so they can get that part right. When folded properly, the flag of the United States of America will only show the blue field with the stars. With this in mind, whichever side is up will show the stars.
The stars on the United States flag represent the number of states in the union.Hawaii became the most recently incorporated, fiftieth, State of the United States on August 21, 1959, and, as tradition dictates, a new flag was adopted on July 4 of the following year. Therefore, since July 4, 1960, the US flag has had 50 stars.

The official flag of the Confederacy was a blue square in the upper left corner with a variance of 7 to 13 stars in a circle, two thick red stripes top and bottom and an equally thick white stripe in the middle of the two. It is often refereed to as the "stars and bars". The confederate battle flag was the same design as the confederate navy jack as seen in some other variants of the confederate flag, but elongated to form a rectangular shape. the battle flag is the most widely known confederate flag.

Much of the controversy comes from misunderstandings. First, what flag do they have issues with? Most people when asked what the "Confederate Flag" looks like would point to a red banner with a blue cross corner to corner with 13 stars in the cross. Some people even refer to this flag as the "stars and bars" because it has white stars on blue bars. Both of those beliefs are FALSE! The flag that most people think of as the "Confederate Flag" is the Confederate Navy Jack (rectangular flag) or the Confederate Cavalry or Artillery flag (square flag). There were three (3) official flags of the Confederate States of America and this flag was NOT one of them. The Confederate Stars and Bars (first flag of the Confederate States of America) looks nothing like the Confederate Navy Jack or Cavalry flags. Take a look at Georgia's state flag. Except for the state seal in the circle of 13 stars, that is the first flag of the Confederacy, the "Stars and Bars." The second point: Some will say that the "Confederate Flag" stands for slavery or racism. Others will say that the "Confederate Flag" stands for rebels and "red necks." The association of the "Confederate Flag" with controversy may have begun with "white supremacy" movements of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) founded in the Southern States in 1865 by Confederate veterans.
