The legend says the Betsy Ross was asked by George Washington to create a flag ( it has never been proved Betsy Ross made the flag) , at first the flag was only used to signal and show others that people were for the patriots during the American Revolution, The flag was actually adopted for the country as a national flag at the start of the civil war at Fort Sumter
