During the war of 1812. Francis Scott Key was in a battle with his team and fighting the British and then, after a big bomb after all the smoke went away, everybody saw that the United States flag was still standing. That is when Francis Scott Key took out an envelope and took out a pen and wrote what he saw. Later it became the United States National Anthem and a poem later in life before Francis Scott Key died.
