Maryland was admitted to the Union April 28, 1788, the seventh State to be admitted. Although the U.S. flag has progressed through several different designs, all with 15 or 13 (13 after 1818) red and white stripes with a blue union--each has had a differing number of stars in different configurations. As Maryland was among the original 13 States, one of the 13 stars on that flag represented Maryland, and Maryland has been represented with a star on each succeeding design of the U.S. flag since that time.
