The Bear Flag Republic refers to a short-lived independent state that was declared in 1846 by American settlers in revolt against Mexican rule in California. The rebellion took place in the town of Sonoma and was symbolized by a flag depicting a grizzly bear and a red star. Although the republic lasted only about 25 days, it played a significant role in the U.S. annexation of California later that year. The bear flag has since become a symbol of California's history and heritage.
