The Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892 by Francis Bellamy as part of a campaign to promote patriotism and national unity in the United States. It was initially intended for the centennial celebration of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas, aiming to instill a sense of national pride among schoolchildren. Over the years, it has been adopted in various contexts and has undergone several revisions, including the addition of the phrase "under God" in 1954.
