"The Star-Spangled Banner" is the national anthem of the United States, written by Francis Scott Key in 1814. It was inspired by Key's observations during the Battle of Fort McHenry in the War of 1812, where he witnessed the American flag, or "star-spangled banner," flying despite the British bombardment. The song reflects themes of resilience and patriotism, celebrating the endurance of the nation amid conflict. Its powerful imagery has made it a symbol of American identity and freedom.
